Installing the KONA LHe Card in a G5

1. Place the PCI-Express G5 in a well-lit convenient area, where you will have easy access to the chassis access door.

2. Using your hand, touch the outside of the G5 to discharge any static electricity you have. Remove the power cable from the back of the PowerMac G5.

3. Remove the access door and clear inner panel as described in your Apple G5 User

Manual. Lay the G5 on its side, motherboard facing up.

4. Remove the KONA LHe card from its protective anti-static bag; place the card on top of the bag.

5. Visually locate the PCI-Express slots inside the G5 chassis. The KONA card only requires a 4-lane PCI-Express slot, so any of the available slots will work correctly.

6. Remove the card edge access cover from the desired slot where you will be inserting the KONA LHe card. The card edge cover is secured by a phillips screw; save this screw for use in installing KONA LHe.

7. Holding the KONA LHe card by the card edge plate and an outside edge, carefully insert the KONA LHe card by rocking it slowly into the slot. Ensure the card edge aligns properly with the G5’s opening (where the card edge cover was just removed) and that it is fully seated in the slot.

8. Secure the card in the slot using the screw removed earlier.

9. Replace the G5’s clear inner panel and outer access door.

Note: After you install the KONA LHe card, you may notice that in the MacOSX Network preferences there is a message stating “You have a new network port named KONA LHe

—be sure to check the settings...”. There is no need to take any action; this occurs because MacOSX detects the RS-422 serial port on the KONA LHe card that you will use for VTR machine control.
