Review the steps below to prepare the system for installation of FDDI hardware. See the HP-PB FDDI Adapter Installation Guide or the HP Model A2254A FDDI Installation Guide for complete details.

  1. Remove the slot cover and set aside the slot cover retaining screw.

  2. With the grounding wrist strap on, hold the adapter by its edges or faceplate with both hands.

  3. Series 800 HP-PB: Install the card in the lowest slot available. Follow the instructions in the HP-PB FDDI Adapter Installation Guide.

    WARNING! Hewlett-Packard recommends not rearranging any network interface cards installed in your system. If you do, you may need to reconfigure IP addresses. See "Reconfiguring IP Addresses" in the next chapter.

  4. Press the adapter firmly into place.

  5. Secure the adapter by replacing the slot cover screw and reassemble the workstation. Reconnect the power cord.
