CAUTION:
Under ordinary circumstances, a DFE-520TX card will not be affected by a static chargethat may be
received through your body during handling of the unit. In special circumstances, the user may carry
an extraordinarily high static charge and it is good practice to reduce the charge by touching a
ground before handling the adapter card.
Open the shipping carton and carefully remove all items. Ensure that the following items are
included:
•
One DFE-520TX PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter Card
•
DFE-520TX Drivers and Manual on CD-ROM
If any of these items are missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement.
Software Installation
You must install the driver software for your DFE-520TX before installing the PCI card into your
PC. Insert the CD into your PC’s CD-ROM drive. It should begin running the driver installation
program, if you have auto-execute enabled.
When the screen shown below appears, click the
Install Driver
link.
If you do not have auto-execute enabled for your PC’s CD-ROM drive, navigate to the root
directory of the CD using Windows Explorer and click on the file named
Autorun.exe
. This will
open the window shown above. Then click the
Install Driver
link to install the driver.
