Safety Instruct ions
Always use caution when servicing any electrical component. Before
working inside a computer, read the following instructions and safety
guidelines to prevent damage to the product and to ensure your own
personal safety. Refer to the “Advisories” section for advisory
conventions used in this guide, including the distinction between
Dangers, Warnings, Cautions, and Notes.
ii Preface
MAGMA
♦ Always use caution when handling/operating the computer.
Only qualified, experienced, authorized electronics personnel
should access the interior of the computer. The power supplies
produce high voltages and energy hazards, which can cause
bodily harm.
♦ Use extreme caution when installing or removing components.
Refer to the installation instructions in this guide for
precautions and procedures. If you have any questions,
please contact Mobility Technical Support.
WARNING
High voltages are present inside the expansion chassis when the
unit’s power cord is plugged into an electrical outlet. Disconnect the
power cord from its source before removing the system cover.
Never modify or remove the radio frequency interference shielding from
your workstation or expansion unit. To do so may cause your installation
to produce emissions that could interfere with other electronic
equipment in the area of your system.
When Working Inside a Computer
Before taking covers off a computer, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off the computer and any peripherals
2. Disconnect the computer and peripherals from their power
sources to prevent electric shock or system board damage.
3. Disconnect any telephone or telecommunications lines from
the computer.
In addition, take note of these safety guidelines when appropriate:
♦ To help avoid possible damage to systems boards, wait five
seconds after turning off the computer before removing a
component, removing a system board, or disconnecting a
peripheral device from the computer.
♦ When you disconnect a cabl e, pull on its connector or on its
strain-relief loop, not on the cable itself. Some cables have a
connector with locking tabs. If you are disconnecting this type
of cable, press in on the locking tabs before disconn ecting the
cable. As you pull connectors apart, keep them evenly aligned
to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before connecting a
Preface iii
MAGMA
cable, make sure both connectors are correctly oriented and
aligned.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to service the system yourself except as explained in
this guide. Follow installation instructions closely.
Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Warning
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) is the enemy of semiconductor
devices. You should always take precautions to eliminate any
electrostatic charge from your body and clothing before touching any
semiconductor device or card by using an electrostatic wrist strap
and/or rubber mat.
Static electricity can harm system boards. Perform service at an ESD
workstation and follow proper ESD procedure to reduce the risk of
damage to components. Mobility strongly encourages you to follow
proper ESD procedure, which can include wrist straps and smocks,
when servicing equipment.
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from
electrostatic discharge (ESD):
♦ When unpacking a static-se nsitive component from its shippin g
carton, do not remove the component’s anti-static packaging
material until you are ready to install the component in a
computer. Just before unwrapping the anti-static packaging,
be sure you are at an ESD workstation or grounded.
♦ When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an
anti-static container or packaging.
♦ Handle all sensitive components at an ESD workstation. If
possible, use anti-static floor pads and workbench pads.
♦ Handle components and boards with care. Don’t touch the
components or contacts on a board. Hold a board by its edges
or by its metal mounting bracket.

MAGMA
Chapter 1 Introduction
General Specifications
The MAGMA PCI Host Card is the connection between your PCI
Expansion System and your host computer. Model PCIHIF68 is a 32-Bit
host card. Model PCIHIF64LP is a 64-Bit low-profile host card that will
also work in a 32-Bit PCI slot. The expansion system provides a
general-purpose bus expansion chassis for the Periphera l Component
Interconnect (PCI) local bus. MAGMA expansion chassis configurations
are available in 1 Slot (for both full and half sized PCI cards), 2 Slot, 4
Slot, 7 Slot, and 13 Slot. The expansion chassis’s are fully compliant
with the PCI Local Bus Specification.
Pre-Installation Information
Before using the MAGMA expansion chassis you should perform the
following steps:
• Inventory the shipping carton contents for all of the required parts
• Gather all of the necessary tools required for installation
• Read this guide
Parts List
The following parts are provided:
Qty Item
1 PCI Host Card (32-bit or Low Profile 64-bit)
1 Low-profile mounting bracket (PCIHIF64LP Only)
1 Software CDROM

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation
IMPORTANT
It is recommended that you refer to the separate E
Chassis User’s Guide included with your Magma Expansion
Chassis product for complete system installation information. The
following installation instructions briefly explain the connection of
the host card to the host computer only.
Install Host Card
Power down your computer. Use the procedures for shutting do wn your
operating system and shutting off power to your system provided in yo ur
owner’s manual or system documentation.
After the host computer is off and all power cords disconn ected, remov e
the cover and insert the PCI host card into an appropriate vacant PCI
slot by gently pushing the card until it is firmly seated.
Notice that the standard PCI slots are located at a closer distance to t he
edge of the computer’s motherboard than are the PCI Express slots.
xpansion
You should also be aware that some host computers may also contain
3.3V, 5V, and/or Universal PCI slots. Your PCI Host Card can only be
inserted in 3.3V or Universal PCI slots. DO NOT FORCE IT into a slot.
Check to be sure you are not trying to install it into a 5V PCI slot, or a
PCIe slot. Once you have the host card firmly inserted into the correct
PCI slot secure the card to the slot with a mounting screw.
2 Chapter 2 Installation
MAGMA
If you don’t have any empty PCI slots, you can remove a PCI card to
create a vacant slot. This PCI card can later be installed in a vaca nt slot
in your new expansion chassis.
The PCIHIF64LP is a “half-height” PCI card attached to a “full-height”
bracket for convenient mounting in most desktop computers. It is als o
shipped with a low profile card bracket to allow mounting on low profile
computer systems.
For low profile case applications, you may need to change the mounting
bracket to the low profile bracket that shipped with your system. This is
done by removing the screws that hold the card to the bracket. Be sure
you are using proper ESD procedures when completing this action.
For more information on installing PCI Cards, please refer to your
computer’s user manual or system documentation.
Attach Power and Expansion Cable(s)
Carefully position the Magma expansion chassis so that the cable
supplied with your expansion system will conveniently reach from the
connector of the host card to the connector(s) on the back of the
expansion chassis.
The cable(s) connect to the host card using thumbscrews; therefore no
tools are required to attach the cables. However, in order to create the
most robust connection, it is recommended that you tighten the
thumbscrews with a screwdriver.
Attach one end of the PCI expansion cable to the host card and the
other end to the rear side of the expansion chassis.
Chapter 2 Installation 3
MAGMA
Connect all power cords to the power-in receptacle located at the rear of
the enclosure.
Secure the cable to the computer with the captive thumbscrews.
It is important that the cable be attached securely to the
connectors at both ends.
If you purchased the “half-height” PCIHIF64LP because your host
computer is a low-profile chassis and you need to connect it to a
32-bit expansion chassis, be sure to connect your expansion
cable to the 32-bit (Teal) side of the host card.
Finish connecting the power cable to your expansion system
using instructions contained in the Expansion Chassis User
Guide. Turn on the power to the expansion system first, and then
the host computer.
Apply Power Correctly
You must apply power to the Magma expan sion chassis BEFORE you
power up your computer. This will allow the higher numbered PCI buses
in the PCI bus hierarchy to be at a stable state when the host system
issues its master power-on bus reset. In systems that perform automatic
PCI bus configuration, this will allow the configuration code to recognize
the PCI bus hierarchy and any attached devices.
There is an On/Off switch on the expansion chassis, as well as an LED
indicator to indicate power status. For information about your particu lar

need to be adjusted for proper installation. It is an easy process to
determine if the voltage switch needs to be adjusted for your
configuration.
1. If both LEDs shown below are lit, DO NOT adjust the dip
switch.
2. If only the +5V LED is lit (closed to the end of the board), shut
down your computer, then flip the switch to the ON position
before continuing. When you power up the computer again,
both LEDs should be lit.
