2. Installation
This chapter gives users a package item checklist, proper instructions
about unpacking and step-by-step procedures for both driver and card
installation.
2.1 Unpacking
After receiving your PCI-1712/1712L package, please inspect its
contents first. The package should contain the following items:
þ PCI-1712/1712L card
þ Companion CD-ROM (DLL driver included)
þ User’s Manual
þ Quick Start
The PCI-1712/1712L card harbors certain electronic components
vulnerable to electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD could easily damage
the integrated circuits and certain components if preventive measures
are not carefully paid attention to. Before removing the card from the
antistatic plastic bag, you should take following precautions to ward
off possible ESD damage:
l Touch the metal part of your computer chassis with your hand
to discharge static electricity accumulated on your body. Or one
can also use a grounding strap.
l Touch the antistatic bag to a metal part of your computer
chassis before opening the bag.
l Take hold of the card only by the metal bracket when removing it
out of the bag.
After taking out the card, first you should:
l Inspect the card for any possible signs of external damage
(loose or damaged components, etc.). If the card is visibly
damaged, please notify our service department or our local sales
representative immediately. Avoid installing a damaged card into
your system.
Also pay extra caution to the following aspects to ensure proper
installation:
Avoid physical contact with materials that could hold static
electricity such as plastic, vinyl and Styrofoam.
