Installing the Eiconcard C2x
Follow the steps below to install the Eiconcard C2x. If you want the
Eiconcard C2x to be available to multiple users on a LAN, install it
in the PC that will function as a gateway for the LAN.
1 Prepare the PC
Turn off the PC and disconnect its power cable. Remove the cover
of the PC according to the instructions that came with it.
2 Install the Eiconcard C2x
a) Drain static electricity from your body by touching the metal
chassis (the unpainted metal at the back of your PC).
b) Locate a slot in your PC that has the same bus type as your
adapter.
If your PC has both ISA and PCI slots, the ISA slots are longer,
as shown.

c) If there is a metal plate at the end of the slot, remove it and keep
the screw.
d) Firmly insert the adapter into the selected slot.
To avoid damaging your hardware, insert the adapter
only into a slot with the same bus type as the adapter.
Inserting the adapter into any other type of slot can
damage your adapter, your PC, or both.
