• Prior to installing the PCI card, insert the included driver CD and navigate to the driver for your OS. Click on the driver file to install it, following the prompts that appear until installation is complete.

• Turn off the computer you are installing the PCI card in, unplug its power cord and disconnect all peripheral devices (e.g. monitor, keyboard, mouse, printer, etc.).
• Referring to your computer's technical documentation, remove the cover from your computer.

Installation

1. Locate an available PCI slot (Universal 3.3 & 5V; 32-bit), and remove the metal bracket from the back of the computer to allow for insertion of the card.
2. Gently insert the PCI interface connector on the card into the PCI slot, making sure it connects securely and evenly.
3. Reattach the metal bracket to the back of the computer.
4. Place the cover back onto the computer. Re-connect its power cords and peripheral devices.
5. To verify your installation, navigate to your computer's device manager and confirm the ports on the PCI card appear as COM ports.
