This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15

of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed

and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,

there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. 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:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

LSI Logic is not responsible for any radio or television interference caused by unauthorized modiﬁcation of this

equipment or the substitution or attachment of connecting cables and equipment other than those speciﬁed by LSI

Logic. The correction of interferences caused by such unauthorized modiﬁcation, substitution, or attachment will be

the responsibility of the user.

Devices and Radiological Health (FDA/CDRH) regulation 21 CFR 1040,

Performance Standards for Light-Emitting Products and 21 CFR 1010,

Performance Standards for Electronic Products: General.

Internationally, these transceivers are certiﬁed as Class 1 laser products that

conform to the requirements contained in the International Electrotechnical

Commission (IEC) standard 825-1 (1993). Class 1 laser products are not

considered to be hazardous based upon current medical knowledge. This class

includes all lasers or laser systems which cannot emit levels of optical radiation

above the exposure limits for the eye under any exposure conditions inherent in

the design of the laser product. The design of the transceivers on this host

adapter is such that access to laser radiation above a Class 1 emission level

during operation, user maintenance, or service conditions is prevented. However,

there may be a laser embedded in the enclosure of the Class 1 laser that is more

hazardous, but harmful radiation cannot escape the intact enclosure. With any

laser, the following precautions should be followed to prevent accidental exposure

to any levels of optical radiation.

CAUTION: Do not look into the transceiver ports, do not view the transceiver

ports with optical instruments, and avoid direct exposure to the beam.

1.2 Obtaining Windows NT/Windows 2000 Drivers

Before you begin the 2 Gbit/s Fibre Channel to PCI host adapter

installation, create a Windows NT or Windows 2000 driver diskette by

copying the driver ﬁles from either the LSI Logic SDMS CD-ROM or from

the LSI Logic web site at http://www.lsilogic.com. If you obtain

the driver software from the LSI Logic web site, the zipped package that

you download contains the appropriate ﬁles. To obtain the driver software

from the Fusion-MPT™ (Message Passing Technology) Software Device

Drivers and Utilities CD-ROM, copy all the ﬁles starting from the I386

subdirectory through the MINIPORT subdirectory

(I386/WINNT/MINIPORT) to the root directory of a clean diskette. You

will use the driver diskette during installation process.

1.3 Quick Host Adapter Installation Procedure

This section provides an overview of the installation procedure. If you are

an experienced computer user with prior host adapter installation and FC

setup experience, this section may sufﬁciently describe the procedure for

you. If you prefer more detailed instructions for installing the host

adapter, proceed to Section 1.4, “Detailed Installation Procedure.”

For safe and proper installation, check the user’s manual supplied with

your computer and perform the following steps.

Step 1. Ground yourself before removing this host adapter board from

the packaging.

Step 2. Remove the host adapter from the packaging and check that it

is not damaged.

Detailed Installation Procedure 1-3

Figure 1.1 illustrates an example of this host adapter board.

Also refer to Chapter 2 to see more detailed drawings of the

2 Gbit/s host adapter boards.

Step 3. Switch off the computer and unplug power cords for all

components in your system.

Step 4. Open your PC cabinet and select an appropriate open PCI slot.

Step 5. Insert the host adapter board.

Step 6. Make any conﬁguration changes.

Step 7. Close your PC cabinet cover.

Step 8. Connect the FC cable to the host adapter.

Step 9. Reconnect all power cords and boot your PC.

1.4 Detailed Installation Procedure

This section provides step-by-step instructions for installing the host

adapter. If you are experienced in these tasks, you may prefer to use

Section 1.3, “Quick Host Adapter Installation Procedure.”

1.4.1 Before You Start

Before starting, look through the following task list to get an overall idea

of the steps you will be performing. If you are not conﬁdent you can

perform the tasks as described here, LSI Logic recommends getting

assistance.

Each FC host adapter channel that you install can act as host for up to

126 Arbitrated Loop FC devices, not including the adapter itself. Follow

the detailed instructions in the next section to successfully install your

host adapter board.

1.4.2 Inserting the Host Adapter

For safe and proper installation, use the user’s manual supplied with your

computer. Perform the following steps to install the host adapter.

Step 1. Ground yourself before removing this host adapter board from

the packaging.

1-4 Installing the 2 Gbit/s Host Adapters

Step 2. Remove the host adapter from the packaging and check that it

is not damaged.

Figure 1.1 illustrates an example of this host adapter board.

Also refer to Chapter 2 to see more detailed drawings of the

2 Gbit/s host adapter boards.

Step 3. Switch off the computer and unplug power cords for all

components in your system.

Step 4. Remove the cover from your computer per the instructions in

the user’s manual for your system to access the PCI slots.

Caution: Ground yourself by touching a metal surface before

removing the cabinet top. Static charges on your body can

damage electronic components. Handle plug-in boards by

the edge; do not touch board components or gold

connector contacts. The use of a static ground strap is

recommended.

Step 5. Locate the slots for PCI plug-in board installation.

Refer to the computer’s user’s manual to conﬁrm the location of

the PCI slots.

This host adapter requires a 32-bit or 64-bit PCI slot that allows

bus master operation. If a 32-bit PCI slot is used, the portion of

the J1 connector farthest from the bracket remains uninserted.

See Figure 1.2.

Note: For this host adapter to function as a 64-bit device, it must

be inserted in a 64-bit PCI slot. If the host adapter is

inserted in a 32-bit PCI slot, it will function as a 32-bit

device.

Step 6. On the back of the computer, remove the blank bracket panel

that is aligned with the PCI slot you intend to use. Save the

bracket screw.

Detailed Installation Procedure 1-5

Figure 1.1 Hardware Connections for the LSI Logic Host Adapter

Step 7. Carefully insert edge connector J1 (see Figure 1.1) of the host

adapter into the PCI slot.

Make sure the edge connector is properly aligned before

pressing the board into place as shown in Figure 1.2. The

bracket around connector J2 should ﬁt where you removed the

blank panel.
