HDX Card Installation Guide16
10 If you are installing additional HDX cards (or
other cards), install any additional HDX PCIe
cards in the remaining consecutive PCIe slots.
Otherwise, skip to step 12.
11 If you have installed more than one HDX PCIe
card, connect the cards using the included HDX
TDM cable (see “Connecting Multiple HDX PCIe
Cards Using HDX TDM Cables” on page 21).
12 Connect the power cable to the installed HDX
PCIe cards. (See Figure 6 above).
13 Check to be sure that your cards are installed
in the proper order for your system, starting
with the lowest numeric slot:
• Display card for your computer monitor
•HDX cards
• Avid-approved video capture card (op-
tional)
• Host Bus Adapter (HBA) card (optional)
14 Reattach the clamp that secures the cards and
the slot covers to the chassis.
15 Replace the SATA drives.
16 Close the computer case.
