Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the KINO-AQ670. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the KINO-AQ670 or any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
KINO-AQ670 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of the KINO-AQ670 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the KINO-AQ670 and injury to the person installing the motherboard. WARNING:...
The CPU, CPU cooling kit and DIMM are the most critical components of the KINO-AQ670. If one of these component is not installed the KINO-AQ670 cannot run. 4.3.1 S o c ke t LGA1155 CP U In s ta lla tio n WARNING: CPUs are expensive and sensitive components.
KINO-AQ670 To install the CPU, follow the steps below. Disengage the load lever by pressing the lever down and slightly outwards to S te p 1: clear the retention tab. Fully open the lever. See Figure 4-1. Figure 4-1: Disengage the CPU Socket Load Lever Open the socket and remove the protective cover.
KINO-AQ670 S te p 4: Orientate the CPU properly. The contact array should be facing the CPU socket. Correctly position the CPU. Match the Pin 1 mark with the CPU edge on the S te p 5: CPU socket. Align the CPU pins. Locate pin 1 and the two orientation notches on the CPU.
KINO-AQ670 Figure 4-4: Close the Socket LGA1155 Connect the 12 V power to the board. Connect the 12 V power from the power S te p 9: supply to the board. 4.3.2 Co o lin g Kit In s ta lla tio n WARNING: DO NOT attempt to install a push-pin cooling fan.
KINO-AQ670 WARNING: Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of thermal paste on the bottom of the heat sink. The thermal paste between the CPU and the heat sink is important for optimum heat dissipation. To install the cooling kit, follow the instructions below.
Connect the fan cable. Connect the cooling kit fan cable to the fan connector S te p 5: on the KINO-AQ670. Carefully route the cable and avoid heat generating chips and fan blades. 4.3.3 DIMM In s ta lla tio n To install a DIMM, please follow the steps below and refer to Figure 4-7.
OPEN a jumper means removing the Figure 4-8: Jumper Locations plastic clip from a jumper. Before the KINO-AQ670 is installed in the system, the jumpers must be set in accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the KINO-AQ670 are listed in Table 4-1. Description...
J u m p e r Lo c a tio n : If the KINO-AQ670 fails to boot due to improper BIOS settings, the clear CMOS jumper clears the CMOS data and resets the system BIOS information. To do this, use the jumper cap to close pins 2 and 3 for a few seconds then reinstall the jumper clip back to pins 1 and 2.
KINO-AQ670 If the “CMOS Settings Wrong” message is displayed during the boot up process, the fault may be corrected by pressing the F1 to enter the CMOS Setup menu. Do one of the following: Enter the correct CMOS setting ...
