When the PCIE-690AM2 is unpacked, please do the following: Follow the anti-static precautions outlined in Section 5.1. Make sure the packing box is facing upwards so the PCIE-690AM2 does not fall out of the box. Make sure all the components in the checklist shown in Chapter 3 are present.
Running a CPU without a cooling kit may also result in injury to the user. The CPU, CPU cooling kit and DIMM are the most critical components of the PCIE-690AM2. If one of these components is not installed the PCIE-690AM2 cannot run. 5.4.1 Socket AM2 CPU Installation WARNING: CPUs are expensive and sensitive components.
PCIE-690AM2 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card Step 1: Inspect the CPU socket. Make sure there are no bent pins and make sure the socket contacts are free of foreign material. If any debris is found, remove it with compressed air. Step 2: Open the CPU socket lever.
PCIE-690AM2 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 5.4.2 Socket AM2 Cooling Kit Installation CF-AM2-RS CF-478A CF-519-RS Figure 5-2: IEI Cooling Kit An IEI AMD Socket AM2 CPU cooling kit (Figure 5-2) can be purchased separately. The cooling kit comprises a CPU heat sink and a cooling fan. To install the cooling kit, please follow the steps below.
5.4.3 DIMM Installation WARNING: Using incorrectly specified DIMM may cause permanently damage the PCIE-690AM2. Please make sure the purchased DIMM complies with the memory specifications of the PCIE-690AM2. DIMM specifications compliant with the PCIE-690AM2 are listed in Chapter 2. To install a DIMM into a DIMM socket, please follow the steps below and refer to Figure 5-4.
PCIE-690AM2 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card Figure 5-4: Installing a DIMM Step 1: Open the DIMM socket handles. The DIMM socket has two handles that secure the DIMM into the socket. Before the DIMM can be inserted into the socket, the handles must be opened. See Figure 5-4.
OPEN a jumper means removing the plastic clip from a jumper. Before the PCIE-690AM2 is installed in the system, the jumpers must be set in accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the PCIE-690AM2 are listed in Table 5-1.
PCIE-690AM2 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card If the PCIE-690AM2 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.
The PCIE-690AM2 must be installed in a chassis with ventilation holes on the sides allowing airflow to travel through the heat sink surface. In a system with an individual power supply unit, the cooling fan of a power supply can also help generate airflow through the board surface.
PCIE-690AM2 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 5.6.2 Backplane Installation Before the PCIE-690AM2 can be installed into the chassis, a backplane must first be installed. Please refer to the installation instructions that came with the backplane and the chassis to see how to install the backplane into the chassis.
