Hardware Installation

The ExpressCard adapter will simply slide into the ExpressCard slot on any compatible

system. Push the card all the way in, until it ‘clicks’ and locks into place. To eject the

card, simply push the card further into the slot until it clicks, and then release and it will

then be automatically ejected from the slot.
Turning the computer off to insert/remove ExpressCard adapters is not necessary as

they are hot-pluggable, however, ensure any USB peripherals are safely disconnected

before removing the ExpressCard adapter.
OPTIONAL: For some high-powered USB devices, additional power may be required

from the USB port. A power jack is provided for connecting the included USB to DC

Power Adapter Cable or an external power adapter (not included), to help support

such devices.
