Install a Daughtercard
Locate the slot where you want to install the Daughtercard and remove the filler
panel by loosening the screws.
Note
If original Blank Panel is installed, insert a screwdriver into the slot at the center
(as shown in inset) of the filler panel and work the screwdriver up and down to
loosen the panel. Detach the filler panel from the tabs at each end and remove.
Carefully position the Daughtercard over the connector. Press down firmly so the
daughtercard connector seats properly with the motherboard connector.
Secure the Daughtercard with the mounting screws on the back panel as well as
either 1 on 2 screws to the internal card stand-offs.
CAUTION: Ensure that daughtercard connector pins are properly aligned with
the corresponding motherboard connector to prevent damage to the card when
power is applied.
