2. Installation
procedure
2.1
Installing the board
To get the board running, follow these steps. In some cases the board shipped from KONTRON Technology
has CPU, DDR2 DRAM and Cooler mounted. In this case Step 2-4 can be skipped.
1. Turn off the power supply
2. Insert the DDR2 SODIMM 200pin DRAM module(s)
Push down the module from the top side until the tabs lock. For a list of approved DDR2 SODIMM modules
contact your Distributor or FAE.
DDR2-667 SODIMM 200pin DRAM modules (PC5300) are supported.
3. Install the processor
The CPU is keyed and will only mount in the CPU socket in one way. Use a 6mm flatheaded screwdriver
to open/ close the CPU socket. The Mobile AMD Sempron™ and AMD Turion™ 64 X2 Mobile
Processors for S1 socket are supported, refer to supported processor overview for details.
4. Cooler
Installation
On the board backside, place frame with thread pointing away from the board. Place insulator material
between board and frame. Use the 4 screws to lock the cooler from the topside; make sure to align the
cooler even with the board. Connect the Fan electrically to the CPU FAN connector.
5. Connecting
Interfaces
Insert all external cables for hard disk, keyboard etc. A CRT monitor must be connected in order to
change CMOS settings to flat panel support.
Warning
: Do not use Power Supply without 3.3V monitoring watchdog, which is
standard feature in ATX Power Supplies.
Running the board without 3.3V connected will damage the board after a few minutes.
