Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the SuperMac E100 Extended

Performance Card by UMAX Computer Corporation (referred to herein

as UMAX Computer). The SuperMac E100 combines high speed disk

and networking capabilities in a single PCI card. It dramatically

increases performance of most SCSI devices connected to it and con-

nects your SuperMac system to a high-speed 100Mbps network.

The E100 offers up to 40MByte per second transfer rates and enables

you to daisy-chain up to 16 devices. The E100 provides automatic ter-

mination with custom termination available through the control panel.

The 100MBit Ethernet feature offers instant migration from 10 to

100Mbps networking, auto-negotiation for 10Base-T or 100Base-TX

operation, and a performance gain of four or five times over ordinary

10Base-T when combined with NetDoubler software. The E100 card

improves network throughput by taking full advantage of network

bandwidth.

Installing the E100

The instructions in this section explain the procedures for installing

the E100 Card into a SuperMac S900 or J700 series machine. You can

computer is properly grounded.

2. If you are installing the card in an S900, carefully turn the com-

puter on its right side (as you face the front of the computer).

3. Loosen the large thumbscrew on the back panel.

the it a few inches toward the rear of the computer. If the panel lid

appears tight, apply a strong downwards pressure (where the large

arrows indicate) as you slide the lid to the rear. Then lift t he

panel up and off the computer.

5. Remove the metal access port cover behind the enhanced PCI slot

marked Slot A. (The marking is on the motherboard.)

Remove the mounting screw at the top of the metal access port

cover, then lift off the cover plate and set it aside.

6. Position the E100 card over Slot A.
