How do I install an LT-HD card and confirm that it is functional
1. Remove the AC power cord and take the top off of the Aurora 16 or Aurora 8. There are seven large screws plus one small screw near the center of the front faceplate.
2. Before installing the LT-HD card, there is a jumper setting on the Aurora that corrects the current draw for an Aurora with an LT-HD.

If you are updating a Rev A. Aurora, remove jumper W3 from the JP6 header on the Aurora mainboard.If you are updating a Rev B Aurora, slide switch 4 (labeled W4 on PCB) of SW1 to the OFF position (towards back panel).

3. Remove the LSlot Expansion Port cover above the AES I/O Ports by removing the two mounting screws. Set these two screws aside, as they will be used to secure the LT-HD after installation.
4. Remove the screw from the Aurora circuit board that is adjacent to the JP1 connector and the white serial number/barcode label. Set the screw aside for reuse.
5. Install the standoff post (included with the LT-HD) in this same hole.
6. Grounding yourself to the earth ground, remove the LT-HD from its protective static bag.
7. Attach the multi-pin connector on the back edge of the LT-HD to the LSlot connector (JP1) on the Aurora mainboard. When the LT-HD connector pins appear to be lined up correctly with the Aurora LSlot connector press gently until the connector snaps into place. In some cases, the board may need to be gently flexed for the LSlot connector pins to line up correctly with JP1 on the Aurora mainboard.

Use caution to insure that the pins line up correctly. Incorrect installation could damage the unit.

Note: newer production units of the LT-HD have a sheath around the pins which insures correct allignment.

8. Secure LT-HD with three screws; one on the standoff and two from the back panel of Aurora. Keep screws loose until LT-HD is properly aligned, then tighten snugly, but do not overtighten.
9. Reinstall the Aurora lid using the eight screws that had been removed. Do not over tighten the small screw near the center of the front faceplate as it is easily damaged.
10. Plug in and power up the Aurora using the front panel standby switch. You can see the LT-HD from the slits in the Aurora lid. If the green LED on the LT-HD lights up, the installation was successful. If the LED does not light, unplug the Aurora and re-mount the LT-HD, making sure that it is securely attached. Then plug in and power up again. If the green LED still does not light, contact Lynx Customer Support (949-515-8265 X206).
