Section Two: Physical Installation
The IO Turbo Series adapter is simple and quick to install—
even for the novice computer user. Take a few moments to
read over the directions before you begin.
1. Remove your system cover, remembering to power down
your system first. You may find it necessary to remove other
adapter boards or detach cables. If so, make note of where
everything goes. Now, select an empty 16-bit expansion slot.
Choose either depending on convenience. Remove the
screw and the metal plate that covers the external access to
the slot you have selected.

make sure Communication Port Settings (bits per second) are set to
one-fourth of the actual speed desired (e.g., 9600bps will yield
38400bps). Note:
