Install an Add-in Card

The performance and non-display computers support half-length, full-height
add-in cards. Half-length PCI cards are 106.68 mm (4.2 in.) high by 175.26 mm
(7.0 in.) long.

The following table lists onboard PCI slots and configurations supported by the
performance and non-display computers.

The PCI slot supports a maximum load of 4 W. Make sure your card does not
exceed its thermal ratings. When the computer is running at its maximum rated
temperature, the ambient temperature in the PCI slot with a 4 W fanless card in
operation may reach 80 °C (176 °F). With a 1 W load, the ambient temperature
may reach 70 °C (158 °F).

Follows these steps to install an add-in card (the performance computer is shown).

1. Follow the steps for

2. Remove the computer cover as detailed in

IMPORTANT

Even though the standard computer has onboard PCI slots, its chassis design
prevents it from supporting add-in card installation.

ATTENTION: Add-in cards are sensitive to ESD and require careful handling.

Hold cards only by the edges.

Do not touch the card connectors, components, or circuits.

After removing an add-in card, place it on a flat, static-free surface, component

side up.

Do not slide the card over any surface.

IMPORTANT

Use an antistatic wrist strap connected to the work surface, and properly
grounded tools and equipment.
