Installing an adapter 9
Installing an adapter in a server
See the HP ProLiant server documentation for additional information on how to safely install a PCI Express
card in the server.
CAUTION: If the server is not PCI Hot Plug compliant, power it down and unplug the power
cord from the power outlet before removing the server access panel. Failure to do so may
damage the adapter or server.
1. Power down the server.
2. Remove the power cord and server access panel. Then remove the cover bracket from a PCI Express
slot.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
3. Firmly seat the adapter in a PCI Express slot and secure the adapter bracket.
NOTE: For 1U type servers you may need to replace the standard profile bracket with a low
profile bracket. See Installing a low profile bracket.
4. Replace the access panel and plug in the power cord.
Preventing electrostatic discharge
To prevent damaging the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when setting up the
system or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage
system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the
device.
To prevent electrostatic damage:
• Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.
