KTD-N0848-B Page 8 Introduction Introduction This manual describes the KTQ77/Flex board made by KONTRON Technology A/S. The board will also be denoted KTQ77 in this manual. The KTQ77 board is based on the Q77 chipset, support 2 and 3 generation Intel® i7 -, i5 -, i3 2Core and 4Core processors and also Pentium and Celeron processors.
1 Installation procedure 1.1 Installing the board To get the board running, follow these steps. If the board shipped from KONTRON has already components like DRAM, CPU and cooler mounted, then relevant steps below, can be skipped. 1. Turn off the PSU (Power Supply Unit) Warning: Turn off PSU (Power Supply Unit) completely (no mains power connected to the PSU) or leave the Power Connectors unconnected while configuring the board.
