2.4 Installing plug-in cards
To install a plug-in card, please proceed as follows:
1. Find the slot(s) which is go to be inserted a card(s), and remove the
slot's blank bracket(s) attached to the rear plate of the chassis.
2. Insert a plug-in card. Make sure that the card bracket has been inserted
properly and the other edge of the card has been fixed in the guiding
rail. Fasten the card at the top of the bracket with a screw.
3. Repeated Step 2 if there is more than one card.
5. Insert the clamp pad(s) into the hold-down clamp. The clamp pads
cushion the plug-in cards from shock and vibration. The hold-down
clamp has two rows of notches for the pads to be inserted, one row is
for PCI cards, the other row for ISA cards. Depending on the card
height, the buffers can be inserted as the narrow end face upwards or
downwards.
6. After inserting the clamp pads, return the hold-down clamp and fasten
it with screws.
Note: Most of Advantech's full-sized CPU cards
support the front USB function. However,
only the PCA-6184-B, PCA-6186-B, PCA-
6188, PCA-6190 and the later full-sized
CPU cards support the front LAN LED
function.
