Handling the Card

ATTENTION:

sensitive to electrostatic dischar whenever you are handling the card. Handling a card without any ESD protection can cause internal circuit damage that may not be apparent during installation or initial use. A grounding wrist strap has been shipped with the card and is to be worn during the installation procedure. Instructions for use of the strap are found on the back of its package.

ake these precautions to guard against ESD damage:

• Before handling the card, be sure to wear the provided static strap and touch

a grounded object to discharge any built-up static charge.

• Avoid touching the backplane connector or interface connector pins located

on the card.

• If the card is not in use, store it in the anti-static clamshell that the card was

shipped in.

Selecting the Base Memory Address Location

The host computer and the card exchange data via a dual-port interface. The dual-port interface is 16 Kbytes long and it begins at the specified base memory address location.

The card comes set to memory address D000:0000. Y selected memory address has been allocated to other interface cards or expansion memory cards you have installed in your computer system. If this occurs, change the switch settings to an available memory address.
