Install The Mainboard In The System Case - ECS P6SEP-Me User Manual

Install the Mainboard in the System Case

Use the screws and mounting brackets supplied with your system case to install the
mainboard. Follow the instructions provided by the case manufacturer.
Connect Devices, Switches and Indicators to the Mainboard
Note: You might not need to carry out every step in the following procedure. It
depends on the options you are installing, and the features that are supported by
your system case.
Note: Ribbon cable connectors are usually keyed so that they can only be
installed correctly on the device connector. If the connector is not keyed make
sure that you match the pin-1 side of the cable connector with the pin-1 side of
the device connector. Each connector has the pin-1 side clearly marked. The pin-
1 side of each ribbon cable is always marked with a red stripe on the cable.
Part One – Internal Connections
1. Locate the floppy diskette drive connector FDD1. Use the ribbon cable to connect
one or two floppy diskettes to the mainboard.
2. Locate the Enhanced IDE connectors IDE1 (primary) and IDE2 (secondary). A
single IDE cable is provided with the mainboard. Connect the cable to IDE1. The
cable has two connectors for IDE devices. If you connect two devices, you must
configure one device as Master, and one device as Slave. See the documentation
provided with the devices for information on this. To install more drives, use
another IDE cable and connect one or two devices to IDE2.
3. Locate the power connector ATX1. Connect the power cable from the power supply
unit to ATX1. The connector is keyed so that it can only be installed correctly.
