image capture application which is included with this product.

Hardware Installation

Chapter 2

This chapter covers the installation of the FlashPoint 128 boards into the PCI bus of a computer.

Though the installation is simple, it is recommended that the steps outlined in this chapter be followed

precisely. This will ensure the units proper working condition.

Static electricity can damage sensitive electronic components. Thats why the FlashPoint 128 board is

shipped in a static-free container. Before you perform a hardware installation procedure, make sure

you discharge any static electricity by touching any non-painted metal area of the chassis.

Integral Technologies assumes no liability for any damage, caused directly or indirectly, by improper

installation of any components by unauthorized service personnel. If you do not feel comfortable

performing the installation, consult a qualified computer technician.

Before Installation

1. Register your FlashPoint 128 board - First, before you proceed,

please ensure your access to Integral Technologies Customer Support.

Become a registered user by completing and returning the product

registration card.

2. Make Backup Disks - Please make backup copies of your FlashPoint

128 setup disks. You should then store the original disks and use the

backups for the software installation.

Installing the FlashPoint 128 Board

Step 1 - Set the FlashPoint 128 Jumper Switches (only if necessary)

There are jumpers on the various FlashPoint 128 boards that may need to

be changed from the factory default setting, depending on your particular

situation. Most of the time, you will not need to make any changes.

Changes from the factory default settings are only needed for special

features. Always try the default settings first.

More information on jumper settings can be found in Appendix A.

The installation of

FlashPoint 128 is simple

and straightforward. The

areas of which you must be

aware are (1) whether you

have a VGA or other video

device already active in

your PC and (2) whether

you need to set any of the

FlashPoint 128 jumpers

(applicable only in rare

instances).

The FlashPoint 128

operates as your system’s

VGA. Therefore, any other

VGA device must be

removed from your system

in order for Intrigue to

function.

The default refresh

resolution for the

FlashPoint 128 boards is

75Hz, 640x480.
