Chapter 2 Installations
2.1. Installation Precautions
Cautions
The procedures in this chapter assume familiarity with the general terminology
associated with single board computers and with the safety practices and regulatory
compliance required for using and modifying electronic equipment.
Disconnect the computer from its power source and from any
telecommunications links, networks, or modems before performing any of the
procedures described in this chapter. Failure to disconnect power, telecommunications
links, networks, or modems before you open the computer or perform any procedures
can result in personal injury or equipment damage. Some circuitry on the board can
continue to operate even though the front panel power button is off.
Follow these guidelines before you begin installing the IA70 Motherboard:
Always follow the steps in each procedure in the correct order.
Set up a log to record information about your computer, such as model, serial
numbers, installed options, and configuration information.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedures
described in this chapter only at an ESD workstation using an antistatic wrist
strap and a conductive foam pad. 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 computer chassis.
When you install and test the IA70 Motherboard, observe all warnings and
cautions in the installation instructions.
To avoid injury, be careful of:
Sharp pins on connectors or headers
Sharp pins on printed circuit assemblies
Rough edges and sharp corners on the chassis
Hot components (like processors, voltage regulators, and heat sinks)
Damage to wires that could cause a short circuit
Observe all warnings and cautions that instruct you to refer computer servicing
to qualified technical personnel.
Do not overload the power supply output. To avoid overloading the power
supply, make sure that the calculated total current loads of all the modules within the
computer is less than the output current rating of each of the power supplies output
circuits.
