PCI Expansion Card Installation

The system includes three pre-installed riser cards (RSC-R1UU-E8R+ and RSC-X-66) that
allow you to position standard size PCI-E cards at a 90-degree angle, allowing them to fit
inside the chassis.
Installing PCI Expansion Cards
The riser cards have already been pre-installed into the motherboard. Perform the following
steps to install an add-on card into one of them:
Begin by removing power from the system as described in section 3.1.
1. Remove the chassis cover to access the inside of the system.
2. Remove Riser Card bracket by following illustration on the bracket.
3. Insert the expansion (add-on) card into the riser card.
4. Install Riser Card bracket back to chassis and re-install top cover.

Motherboard Battery

The motherboard uses non-volatile memory to retain system information when system power
is removed. This memory is powered by a lithium battery residing on the motherboard.
Replacing the Battery
Begin by removing power from the system as described in section 3.1.
1. Push aside the small clamp that covers the edge of the battery. When the battery is
released, lift it out of the holder.
2. To insert a new battery, slide one edge under the lip of the holder with the positive (+)
side facing up. Then push the other side down until the clamp snaps over it.
Note: Handle used batteries carefully. Do not damage the battery in any way; a damaged
battery may release hazardous materials into the environment. Do not discard a used battery
in the garbage or a public landfill. Please comply with the regulations set up by your local
hazardous waste management agency to dispose of your used battery properly.
Warning: There is a danger of explosion if the onboard battery is installed upside down (which
reverses its polarities). This battery must be replaced only with the same or an equivalent type
recommended by the manufacturer (CR2032).
