VIP2 and the 4R Port Adapter
Caution To ensure a positive ground attachment between the port adapter carrier and the VIP2 motherboard and
port adapter slot, and to ensure that the connectors at the rear of the port adapter and slot seat properly,
position the carrier between the upper and lower slot edges, as shown in Figure 12.
Step 10 Carefully slide the new port adapter into the port adapter slot (Figure 12) until the connector on the port
adapter is completely seated in the connector on the motherboard.

configuration note Second-Generation Versatile Interface Processor (VIP2) Installation and
Configuration [Document Number 78-2658-xx], which shipped with your VIP2.)
Step 13 If disconnected, reconnect the interface cables to the port adapters.
