Quick Installation Guide
Utility CD
PFM-541I
Note:
The PFM-541I WiTAS series include the full cable kit because the
special cables can be used in rigid environment.
Because of the weight of the heatsink and the mounting design of the
heatsink, we strongly suggest you to review the system design:
- Make sure the vibration of the system will not impact the reliability of
board.
- If the TF-PFM-541IW2 has to be applied in severely vibrational
operating condition, the system level thermal solution will be an
alternative to minimize the vibration effect since the heatsink is installed
on the chipset.
If any of these items should be missing or damaged, please
contact your distributor or sales representative immediately.

2.1 Safety Precautions
Always completely disconnect the power cord
from your board whenever you are working on
it. Do not make connections while the power is
on, because a sudden rush of power can
damage sensitive electronic components.
Always ground yourself to remove any static
charge before touching the board. Modern
electronic devices are very sensitive to static
electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at
all times. Place all electronic components on a
static-dissipative surface or in a static-shielded
bag when they are not in the chassis
