PATX3070 Motherboard Installation

I/O Shield

Caution
1-14
To prevent serious injury or death from dangerous voltages, before
connecting peripherals, disconnect the power cord from the power source.
Only qualified, experienced electronics personnel should access the
interior of a system.
With headers properly configured, you are ready to mount (if necessary)
the I/O shield and install the PATX3070 motherboard in a chassis or
system enclosure. You can then plug the memory modules, CompactFlash
module, and the various application-specific daughter boards into the
motherboard and cable up the peripherals. Proceed as described in the
following sections to accomplish these tasks.
The I/O shield for the PATX3070 must be in place before you install the
board in a chassis. In most cases, the I/O shield is a factory-installed item.
If you need to install the shield yourself, however, refer to
page 1-15 and follow the procedure below:
1. Carefully remove the PATX3070 from its packaging and lay it flat,
with the connectors facing you.
Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry; static discharge can damage
these circuits.
2. Position the I/O shield on the motherboard I/O connectors, with
icons facing outward.
3. Install jackposts at the printer port and the serial ports (the
connectors are identifiable by the icons on the face plate).
4. Hand-tighten the jackposts to clamp the I/O shield in position.
