computer system.
NOTE: Before installing the module, check your monitor specification for signal compatibility
and supported features offered by the HP Integrity rx2800 i2 2D Graphics Adapter.
The following section describes how to install the HP Integrity rx2800 i2 2D Graphics Adapter.
To install the module, perform the following steps:
1. Perform a normal power-down of the selected computer system. Disconnect the monitor
cable.
2. Disconnect all AC power cables from the computer chassis to remove power from the system
(or turn off the circuit breakers if applicable).
3. Control any ESD by grounding yourself to the system chassis or cabinet with an anti-static
wrist strap.
4. Remove the cover from the system to expose the PCIe slots (see the 'Remove & Replace'
section of the system hardware support documentation).
5. Ensure the new graphics adapter is installed in a supported PCIe x16 slot. This requires an
optional I/O riser assembly with an available PCIe x16 connector.
6. Remove any slot cover if not currently populated.
7. Carefully insert the new graphics adapter into the supported slot and seat it firmly.
8. Secure the card to the chassis by installing and tightening the screw.
9. Replace the system cover.
10. Connect the DMS-59 Y-cable to the connector on the bulkhead of the graphics card.
11. Connect the monitor(s) to either or both of the DVI-I connectors on the DMS-59 cable. Ensure
each connection is secure.
