PCI Interface Card
Open the computer case's cover and insert the MPA-3 PCI card in an unused PCI slot. You might
first have to remove the cover from the rear of the PCI expansion slot you selected. After the card
is carefully seated in the PCI slot, make sure you fastened the card with a screw on the mounting
bracket.
Now install the add-on I/O port connector. In some computer cases special fittings are available
for some types of D-SUB connectors. These are particularly useful to save slots for additional
plug in cards. Otherwise mount the housing bracket with the 15 pin D-SUB connector in another
available slot of your computer. Plug in the 16 pin socket connector at the end of the ribbon cable
into the 16 pin four-walled header on the PCI card.
