Static Electricity Precautions
It is quite easy to inadvertently damage your PC, system board, components or devices even before installing them in your system unit. Static electrical discharge can damage computer components without causing any signs of physical damage. You must take extra care in handling them to ensure against electrostatic build-up.
1. To prevent electrostatic build-up, leave the system board in its anti-static bag until you are ready to install it.
2. Wear an antistatic wrist strap.
3. Do all preparation work on a static-free surface.
4. Hold the device only by its edges. Be careful not to touch any of the components, contacts or connections.
5. Avoid touching the pins or contacts on all modules and connectors. Hold modules or connectors by their ends.
Important: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drive and other components. Perform the upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD workstation only. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the system chassis. If a wrist strap is unavailable, establish and maintain contact with the system chassis throughout any procedures requiring ESD protection.
Safety Precautions
· Use the correct DC / AC input voltage range.
· Unplug the power cord before removing the system chassis cover for installation or servicing. After installation or servicing, cover the system chassis before plugging in the power cord.
· There is danger of explosion if battery incorrectly replaced.
· Replace only with the same or equivalent specifications of batteries recommend by the manufacturer.
· Dispose of used batteries according to local ordinance.
· Keep this system away from humid environments.
· Make sure the system is placed or mounted correctly and stably to prevent the chance of dropping or falling may cause damage.
· The openings on the system shall not be blocked and shall be kept in distance from
User’s Manual | PCSF51
other objects to make sure of proper air ventilation to protect the system from overheating. · Dress the cables, especially the power cord, so they will not be stepped on, in contact with high temperature surfaces, or cause any tripping hazards. · Do not place anything on top of the power cord. Use a power cord that has been approved for use with the system and is compliant with the voltage and current ranges required by the system’s electrical specifications. · If the system is to be unused or stored for a long time, disconnect it from the power source to avoid damage by transient overvoltage. · If one of the following occurs, consult a service personnel: – The power cord or plug is damaged. – Liquid has penetrated the system. – The system has been exposed to moisture. – The system is not working properly. – The system is physically damaged. · The unit uses a three-wire ground cable which is equipped with a third pin to ground the unit and prevent electric shock. Do not defeat the purpose of this pin. If your outlet does not support this kind of plug, contact your electrician to replace the outlet. · Disconnect the system from the electricity outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth for cleaning the surface. Do not use liquid or spray detergents for cleaning. · Before connecting, make sure that the power supply voltage is correct. The device is connected to a power outlet which should be grounded connection.
The system may burn fingers while running. Wait for 30 minutes to handle electronic parts after power off.

Please follow the steps below to install the card into the socket.
Step 1: Insert the card into the socket at an angle while making sure the notch and key are perfectly aligned.
Step 2: Press the end of the card far from the socket down until against the stand-off.
Step 3: Screw tight the card onto the stand-off with a screw driver and a stand-off screw until the gap between the card and the standoff closes up. The card should be lying parallel to the board when it’s correctly mounted.

X Assembly
A heat spreader is included in the standard package. The heat spreader and components required for mounting are illustrated below.
Screw * 4
Interface Metal
The heat spreader is designed to be mounted onto the module as illustrated below. Please make sure the contacting sides of the heat spreader and the module are correct — the CPU side of the module shall be facing the interface metal side and legs of the heat spreader. Rotate horozontally so the interface metal sits right on top of the CPU. Remove any plastic cover on the interface metal and apply thermal paste/adhesive if it is required.
Interface Metal Side Down

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Rotate the module and heat spreader combo so that the I/O is facing the desired side, and place the combo in the position of the chassis reserved for your module.
Align the screw holes of the combo to those on the chassis. The combo can be mounted onto the chassis in two manners — 1) module side to the chassis, or 2) heat spreader side to the chassis as illustrated below. This shall depend entirely on the design of the chassis with regard to interior spacing, thermal, and I/O.
Place the screws that come with the standard package into the screw holes, and use a screw driver to fasten the screws until the combo is securely fixed onto the chassis.

Chapter 3 – BIOS Settings
X Overview
The BIOS is a program that takes care of the basic level of communication between the CPU and peripherals. It contains codes for various advanced features found in this system board. The BIOS allows you to configure the system and save the configuration in a battery-backed CMOS so that the data retains even when the power is off. In general, the information stored in the CMOS RAM of the EEPROM will stay unchanged unless a configuration change has been made such as a hard drive replaced or a device added. It is possible that the CMOS battery will fail causing CMOS data loss. If this happens, you need to install a new CMOS battery and reconfigure the BIOS settings.
Note: The BIOS is constantly updated to improve the performance of the system board; therefore the BIOS screens in this chapter may not appear the same as the actual one. These screens are for reference purpose only.
Default Configuration Most of the configuration settings are either predefined according to the Load Optimal Defaults settings which are stored in the BIOS or are automatically detected and configured without requiring any actions. There are a few settings that you may need to change depending on your system configuration.
Entering the BIOS Setup Utility The BIOS Setup Utility can only be operated from the keyboard and all commands are keyboard commands. The commands are available at the right side of each setup screen. The BIOS Setup Utility does not require an operating system to run. After you power up the system, the BIOS message appears on the screen and the memory count begins. After the memory test, the message “Press DEL to run setup” will appear on the screen. If the message disappears before you respond, restart the system or press the “Reset” button. You may also restart the system by pressing the <Ctrl> <Alt> and <Del> keys simultaneously.

X Updating the BIOS
To update the BIOS, you will need the new BIOS file and a flash utility. Please contact technical support or your sales representative for the files and specific instructions about how to update BIOS with the flash utility.
X Notice: BIOS SPI ROM
1. The Intel® Management Engine has already been integrated into this system board. Due to the safety concerns, the BIOS (SPI ROM) chip cannot be removed from this system board and used on another system board of the same model.
2. The BIOS (SPI ROM) on this system board must be the original equipment from the factory and cannot be used to replace one which has been utilized on other system boards.
3. If you do not follow the methods above, the Intel® Management Engine will not be updated and will cease to be effective.
Note: a. You can take advantage of flash tools to update the default configuration of the
BIOS (SPI ROM) to the latest version anytime. b. When the BIOS IC needs to be replaced, you have to populate it properly onto
the system board after the EEPROM programmer has been burned and follow the technical person’s instructions to confirm that the MAC address should be burned or not.
