2. Installing the CPU
You need the processor bracket, processor (CPU), and heatsink provided in the kit to complete this
procedure.
With the AI NVR open and the protective cover removed:
1. Locate the 2nd processor socket and pull off the CPU dust cover with the yellow label over the socket.
2. Unpack the CPU.
3. Place the processor in the processor tray.
Note:
Ensure that the pin 1 indicator on the processor tray is aligned with the pin 1 indicator on
the processor.
4. Flex the outer edges of the processor bracket and ensure that the processor is locked into the clips on
the bracket.
Note:
Ensure that the pin 1 indicator on the bracket is aligned with the pin 1 indicator on the
processor before placing the bracket.
5. Unpack the heatsink. Be careful not to touch the thermal paste that is pre-applied to the bottom of the
heatsink.
6. Place the heat sink on the processor and push down on the base of the heat sink until the bracket
locks onto the heat sink.
Important:
To avoid damaging the fins on the heat sink, do not press down on the heat sink
fins.
