1. Turn off your system and unplug it. Failure to do so may result in damage to
both the MultiModem and your system. Do not turn on the system until the
instructions tell you to do so.
2. Remove the cover from your system as instructed in the system manual.
3. Select an empty PCI expansion slot. Remove the expansion slot cover and
save the retaining screw.
4. Before handling the MultiModem, discharge static in your body by touching a
metal piece of the system chassis. Carefully remove the MultiModem from its
antistatic bag, handling it only by the mounting bracket and edges. Do not
touch the gold-plated connectors along the bottom edge.
5. For EDGE units only. Orient the SIM to match the marking on the SIM
compartment, the notch part of the SIM should be facing the mounting
bracket. Insert the SIM into its receptacle.
6. When installing the MultiModem, ensure that the antenna SMA connector is
facing out of the system.
7. Place the MultiModem directly above the expansion slot and gently, but
firmly, push it into the connector until the card’s retaining bracket is flush
against the system chassis.
8. Fasten the retaining bracket to the system chassis with the screw saved in
step 3.
9. Replace the system cover.
10. Attach the antenna to the threaded SMA connector on the mounting bracket.
11. Power up the system.
