For optimal performance of the KONA LHe card AJA recommends slot 2. See Option 1 for slot placement. The KONA 3/3G and LHi operate properly in slots 2 and 3.

If you are unsure of the slot configuration as used in your machine, it can be determined by using the Expansion Slot Utility application. This application is found in the following directory location on your Mac Pro: System/Library/CoreServices. The correct configuration is with the slots configured as follows:

x4 for slot 4
x4 for slot 3
x1 for slot 2
x16 for slot 1
