  • Page 69: Anti-Static Precautions

    PICOe-6612 4.1 Anti-static Precautions Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the PICOe-6612. (Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.) It is therefore critical that whenever the PICOe-6612 (or any other electrical component) is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
  • Page 70: Unpacking

    PICOe-6612 When installing or configuring the motherboard, place it on an antistatic pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage. Turn off all power to the PICOe-6612: When working with the motherboard, make sure that it is disconnected from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system. Before and during the installation of the PICOe-6612 DO NOT: remove any of the stickers on the PCB board.
  • Page 71: Checklist

    4.4 PICOe-6612 Motherboard Installation WARNING! Never run the motherboard without an appropriate heatsink and cooler that can be ordered from IEI Technology or purchased separately. WARNING! Please note that the installation instructions described in this manual should be carefully followed in order to avoid damage to the motherboard components and injury to the user.
  • Page 72 PICOe-6612 WARNING! When installing electronic components onto the motherboard always take the anti-static precautions listed above in order to prevent ESD damage to the motherboard and other electronic components like the CPU and DIMM modules The following components must be installed onto the motherboard or connected to the motherboard during the installation process.
  • Page 73: Cpu Installation

    PICOe-6612 4.4.1 CPU Installation WARNING! CPUs are expensive and sensitive components. When installing the CPU please be careful not to damage it in anyway. Make sure the CPU is installed properly and ensure that a heatsink and CPU cooling fan is properly installed before the motherboard is run or else both the CPU and the board may be damaged.
  • Page 74: Figure 4-2: Lock The Cpu Socket Retention Screw

    PICOe-6612 Step 3: Correctly position the CPU. Make sure the pin 1 mark matches the cut edge on the CPU socket. Carefully place the CPU on top of the socket. When properly placed, the CPU should be easily inserted into the socket. Step 4: Insert the CPU.
