What You
Should Have
Done Already
Before you install your system components, you should have
completed the following tasks:
• Determined any ergonomic considerations you may have.
• Chosen a location for your workstation.
• Unpacked your workstation.
• Familiarized yourself with the ports and controls on the rear
of the system unit.
If you have not performed all of these tasks, do so now. They are
covered in Chapter 2.
What You
Should Know
Beforehand
Note that:
• Installing your system requires little or no previous
knowledge of computer systems. Connecting your
workstation should take about 15 minutes.
• This chapter covers connecting your system as a standalone
workstation. You may connect your workstation to a network
with a few minor adjustments to the procedures in this
chapter. Chapter 5 explains how to connect to a network.
• The accessory kit shipped with your workstation includes
parts that you do not need during installation. Save any
terminators or additional parts in case you need them later.
