[. . . ] Apogee reserves the right to change or improve design at any time without prior notification. Design changes are not implemented retroactively, and the incorporation of design changes into future units does not imply the availability of an upgrade to existing units. This warranty is void if Apogee determines, in its sole business judgment, the defect to be the result of abuse, neglect, alteration or attempted repair by unauthorized personnel. The warranties set forth above are in lieu of all other warranties, expressed or implied, and Apogee specifically disclaims any and all implied warranty of merchantability or of fitness for a particular purpose. [. . . ] Remove the screw(s) securing the port access cover(s) of the required PCI slots and set them aside for later use. After verifying jumper settings of the PCI card, align the card edge connector with the desired PCI slot and press the card firmly into place until the gold pins of the edge connector are just visible. Be sure to insert the end of the card without the connector into the appropriate card guide. If the card does not slide into place with minimal effort, remove the card, check alignment and check for foreign objects. Re-install the access cover screw to secure the Symphony PCI card. If multiple Symphony cards have been installed, connect the supplied ribbon cable between each PCI card as shown below, making sure to align the key on the ribbon cable connector to the slot on the PCI card socket. If only two Symphony cards are installed, use the connector on each end of the ribbon connector. Re-install the G5's air deflector and side panel. Installation of Symphony PCI-E card in G5 Multiple Symphony cards connected by ribbon cable 2 Symphony PCI card ­ User's Guide APOGEE ELECTRONICS Installing the X-Symphony card Your X-Symphony card should include the following: 2 1 X-Symphony circuit board 1 X-Symphony Coverplate 2 aluminium standoffs 1 plastic standoff 1 Remove the top cover of the host interface. 2 Remove the Option Card coverplate, and set aside the screws for later use. 3 Remove the two interface circuit board screws indicated at left, and set them aside for later use 4 Install the two aluminium standoffs in the threaded holes vacated by the screws. 5 On the X-Symphony card, install the plastic standoff in the hole adjacent to the multi-pin motherboard connector. 6 Install the X-Symphony Coverplate, and secure it to the host interface using two screws from Step 2. 7 Insert the Port connector end of the X-Symphony card through the appropriate cutouts in the coverplate, and carefully place the multipin motherboard connector in the mating connector found on the host interface motherboard. 8 After verifying the alignment of the multi-pin and the mating connectors, firmly press down on the X-Symphony card, over the connector, until the pins are completely seated in the mating connector. 9 Re-install the circuit board screws from Step 3 in the locations indicated below. 10 Replace the top cover of the host interface. 4 3 Plastic standoff here 6 8 9 3 Symphony PCI card ­ User's Guide APOGEE ELECTRONICS PC32 Connections It's possible to connect Apogee AD16X, DA16X, Rosetta 800 and Rosetta 200 interfaces to Symphony PCI cards in a wide array of configurations for a total of 32 channels of simultaneous input and output per PCI card. To "map" the I/O of interfaces to the Symphony PCI card I/O in the most efficient manner possible, please use the following guidelines to determine the order in which interfaces are connected: 1. AD16X-DA16X (advanced routing) digital out = 16 analog in X 16 analog out; = 16 analog/ digital in X 16 analog out (R800); = 4 analog or digital in X 4 analgo out (R200); = 16 analog in +16 digital in X 16 analog out + 16 2. Per Symphony PCI card, it's possible to connect: a. 2 pairs of AD-DA16Xs (standard routing) or, b. The chart beginning on page 8 depicts all possible combinations of Apogee interfaces per PCI card and how connected interfaces are mapped to the PCI card I/O. Follow the instructions provided by the installer program. [. . . ] If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: 1. Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a different circuit from that to which the receiver is connected. [. . . ]
