Chapter 2 Installation
This is a Micro ATX form factor motherboard. Before you install the motherboard,
study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits into it.

Pre-installation Precautions
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components
or change any motherboard settings.
• Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard
components. Failure to do so may cause physical injuries and damages to motherboard
components.
• In order to avoid damage from static electricity to the motherboard’s components,
NEVER place your motherboard directly on a carpet. Also remember to use a grounded
wrist strap or touch a safety grounded object before you handle the components.
• Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.
• Whenever you uninstall any components, place them on a grounded anti-static pad or
in the bag that comes with the components.
• When placing screws to secure the motherboard to the chassis, please do not over-
tighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

 2.1 Installing Memory Module (DIMM)
This motherboard provides a 288-pin DDR4 (Double Data Rate 4) DIMM slot.

1. It is not allowed to install a DDR, DDR2 or DDR3 memory module into a DDR4
slot; otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged.
2. The DIMM only fits in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent damage to
the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the slot at incorrect
orientation.

 Expansion Slots (PCIe Slots)
There are 2 PCI Express slots on the motherboard.

Before installing an expansion card, please make sure that the power supply is switched off
or the power cord is unplugged. Please read the documentation of the expansion card and
make necessary hardware settings for the card before you start the installation.

PCIe slots:

PCIE1 (PCIe 3.0 x16 slot) is used for PCIe x2 lane width graphics cards.
PCIE2 (PCIe 3.0 x1 slot) is used for PCIe x1 lane width cards.

 2.10 Jumpers Setup
The illustration shows how jumpers are setup. When the jumper cap is placed on
the pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap is placed on the pins, the jumper is
“Open”.

Clear CMOS Jumper

(CLRMOS1) (see p.6, No. 14)
CLRMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in CMOS includes
system setup information such as system password, date, time, and system setup
parameters. To clear and reset the system parameters to default setup, please turn
off the computer and unplug the power cord, then use a jumper cap to short the
pins on CLRMOS1 for 3 seconds. Please remember to remove the jumper cap after
clearing the CMOS. If you need to clear the CMOS when you just finish updating
the BIOS, you must boot up the system first, and then shut it down before you do
the clear-CMOS action.

2.11 Onboard Headers and Connectors

Onboard headers and connectors are NOT jumpers. Do NOT place jumper caps over these
headers and connectors. Placing jumper caps over the headers and connectors will cause
permanent damage to the motherboard.

System Panel Header

(9-pin PANEL1) (see p.6, No. 9)
Connect the power button, reset button and system status indicator on the chassis
to this header according to the pin assignments below. Note the positive and
negative pins before connecting the cables.

PWRBTN (Power Button):

Connect to the power button on the chassis front panel. You may configure the way to turn
off your system using the power button.

RESET (Reset Button):

Connect to the reset button on the chassis front panel. Press the reset button to restart the
computer if the computer freezes and fails to perform a normal restart.

PLED (System Power LED):

Connect to the power status indicator on the chassis front panel. The LED is on when the
system is operating. The LED keeps blinking when the system is in S1/S3 sleep state. The
LED is off when the system is in S4 sleep state or powered off (S5).

HDLED (Hard Drive Activity LED):

Connect to the hard drive activity LED on the chassis front panel. The LED is on when the
hard drive is reading or writing data.

The front panel design may differ by chassis. A front panel module mainly consists of power
button, reset button, power LED, hard drive activity LED, speaker and etc. When connect-
ing your chassis front panel module to this header, make sure the wire assignments and the
pin assignments are matched correctly.
