Installing the Adapter in a Server

Refer to the Compaq ProLiant server documentation for additional information on how to
safely install an I/O card in your server.

1. If the server is not PCI Hot Plug compliant, power down the server and unplug the power

cord.

2. Remove the server cover and cover bracket from a PCI slot.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal
system components to cool before touching them.

CAUTION: If the server is not PCI Hot Plug compliant, power it down and unplug the power
cord from the power outlet before removing the server cover. Failure to do so may damage
the adapter or server.

3. Firmly seat the adapter in a PCI slot and secure the adapter bracket.
