PCI Image Acquisition Board Installation

Note: The Capture Board is relatively easy to install. If, however, you have

reservations about installing it, we recommend that you ask an
experienced technician to do so. If someone is not available, call UVP
technical support for further instructions.


1. Be sure the power to your computer,

monitor and other peripheral devices
are turned off. You can cause damage
to the components in your computer if
you attempt to remove or insert boards
with the power on.

2. Ground yourself to remove static

electricity. Static electricity can cause
damage to your system components.
To discharge your body's static
electricity, touch a grounded surface.
This might be a grounding mat or
grounding wrist strap. Or, before
unplugging the computer power cord,
you can usually ground yourself by
touching any part of the system's bare
metal (unpainted) chassis. Discharge
static electricity periodically while
installing your Capture Kit Board.

3. Unplug the computer from its power

outlet. This will ensure that no power is
available to the computer while you are
exchanging boards. Note, however,
that you will no longer be able to use
the computer chassis for discharging
static electricity.
