Installing the PCI Express serial card

1. Shut down all power connected to the computer, as well as all devices connected to

the computer peripherally (i.e. Printers, Monitors, Scanners etc.). As an added step to

ensure safe installation, unplug the power supply from the computer.

2. Remove the computer cover. For more detailed instruction on how to perform this

step, please refer to the documentation that was included with your computer at the

time of purchase.

3. Locate an empty PCI Express slot, removing the metal bracket covering the

accompanying empty port/socket.

4. Position the USB card above the open PCI Express slot, ensuring that the card is

properly aligned with the slot. Insert the card firmly into the slot, distributing force

evenly across the length of the board. Once inserted, secure the card into the

adjoining socket (previously covered by metal bracket), using the correct size screw (if

necessary, please consult documentation that accompanied purchase of computer).

data. Please ensure that any USB devices are not operating when detached from the

computer. One way to ensure that the device(s) are safely unplugged would be to
