Due to the design of ROBO-8920VG2, it is based on Intel® dual-processor server
chipset. Before installing CPU, please ensure the processor chosen is the right one.

CPU power source connector
ROBO-8920VG2 doesn’t equip +12V power connecter for CPU processor, but when
user adopts ROBO-8920VG2 to configure on backplane, please kindly c12V
power to backplane, which is necessary for operation; exactly, even if user doesn’t
adopt CPU power, the SBC is still operating, but it would be not stable at full
loading circumstance.
ATX Power Setting
ROBO-8920VG2 is able to support ATX power source; besides, user can simulate by
jump setting (J6) for AT type. Please refer description of chapter 2 jumper setting.
Serial ATA Hardware Installation
Unlike IDE bus, each Serial ATA channel can only connect to single SATA hard disk
at simultaneously; there are two SATA connectors on motherboard,
J19
,
J22
. The
installation of Serial ATA is simpler and easier than IDE, because SATA hard disk
doesn’t require setting up Master and Slave, which can reduce mistake of hardware
installation. All you need to do is to plug in two cables on SATA HDD (power and
data-cable).
