Chapter 3: Maintenance and Component Installation
Installing the Motherboard
The I/O shield holds the motherboard ports in place. Install the I/O shield before installing
the motherboard.
Permanent and Optional Standoffs
Standoffs prevent short circuits by creating space between the motherboard and the chassis
surface. The CSE-515B chassis packaging includes optional standoffs (hexagon shaped
posts). These standoffs accept the rounded Phillips head screws included in the packaging.
Installing the I/O Shield
1. Review the documentation that came with your motherboard. Become familiar with
component placement, requirements, and precautions.
2. Make sure no power is being applies to the system, unplug the power cords from the
power supplies and open the chassis cover.
3. Choose the proper I/O shield for the motherboard you are installing. The I/O shield
should be included in the motherboard packaging.
4. With the illustrations facing the outside of the chassis, place the shield into the space
provided. Once installed, the chassis rear window will hold the I/O shield in place.
Installing the Motherboard
To install the motherboard, the expansion card assembly needs to be removed first.
1. Review the documentation that came with your motherboard. Become familiar with
component placement, requirements, and precautions.
2. Power down the system, disconnect the power cords from the power supplies, lay the
chassis on a flat surface and open the chassis cover.
3. Remove the expansion card assembly as described in the next section.
4. Compare the mounting holes in the motherboard to those in the chassis, then add or
remove standoffs as needed. To do this:
a.
Place a hexagonal standoff screw through the bottom the chassis.
b.
Secure the screw with the hexagon nut (rounded side down).
5. Lay the motherboard on the chassis, aligning the permanent and optional standoffs.
6. Secure the motherboard to the chassis using the rounded, Phillips head screws. Do not
exceed more than eight pounds of torque per square inch when tightening.
7. Secure the CPU(s), heatsinks, and other components to the motherboard, chassis, and/
or backplane as needed.
