D-Link DFE- 550FX Adapter
Installation of the DFE-550FX 100-Mbps Adapter requires
installing the hardware first. Once the interface card has been
installed into the host computer, the software can be installed.
Unpacking
CAUTION:
Open the shipping carton and carefully remove all items. In
addition to this User's Guide, ascertain that you have:
•
One DFE-550FX Ethernet Adapter Card.
•
DFE-550FX Software Diskette.
Installing the Adapter
1.
Shut down the computer, unplug its power cord, and
remove the cover.
2.
If your order does not include the Boot ROM option, go
ahead to Step 3. If your order includes the Boot ROM option,
then install the Boot ROM Chip by plugging the chip into
the Boot ROM Socket on the DFE-550FX card. The notched
end of the Boot ROM Chip must be aligned with the notched
end of the Boot ROM Socket. Opposite alignment will
destroy the Boot ROM Chip!
3.
Firmly insert the contact edge of the DFE-550FX card into
any available PCI Bus expansion slot.
4.
Install the bracket screw to secure the card to the computer
chassis.
Under ordinary circumstances, a DFE-550FX interface
card will not be affected by static electricity. However, it
is good practice to eliminate static charges by touching
a sizable metal object before handling the adapter card.
