The power subsystem consists of two hot-swappable power supply module bays that allow the installation of two 337-watts power
supply modules in a hot-swappable redundant configuration. A redundant power configuration enables a fully-configure system to
continue running even if one power supply fails.
To install a hot-swappable redundant power supply, please follow the steps as shown below.
The SV320 comes with one hot-swappable redundant power
supply installed.

The power supply subsystem
should supply a minimum of
337-Watts to the whole

This chapter describes jumpers, connectors and hardware devices of this motherboard.
Note: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drives, expansion boards,
and other components. Always observe the following precautions before you install a syste
component.
1.Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until you are ready to install it.
2.Wear a wrist ground strap and attach it to a metal part of the system unit before handling a
component. If a wrist strap is not available, maintain contact with the system unit throughout an
rocedure requiring ESD protection.

1. Pull up the CPU socket lever and up to 90-degree angle.
2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for a (golden) cut edge on the CPU
upper interface. Match Pin 1 and cut edge. Then insert the CPU into
the socket.
3. Press down the CPU socket lever and finish CPU installation.
Note: If you do not match the CPU socket
Pin 1 and CPU cut edge well, it may
damage the CPU.

IDE1 is also known as the primary channel and IDE2 as the secondary channel. Each channel supports two IDE devices that make a
total of four devices. In order to work together, the two devices on each channel must be set differently to Master and Slave mode.
Either one can be the hard disk or the CDROM. The setting as master or slave mode depends on the jumper on your IDE device, so
please refer to your hard disk and CDROM manual accordingly.
Warning: The specification of the IDE cable is a
maximum of 46cm (18 inches), make sure your cable
does not exceed this length.
Tip: For better signal quality, it is recommended
to set the far end side device to master mode
and follow the suggested sequence to install
your new device. Please refer to above diagram.

WOM by Internal Modem Card
With the help of the ATX soft power On/Off, it is possible to have a system totally power off, and wakeup to automatically answer a
phone call as an answering machine or to send/receive a fax. You may identify whether or not your system is in true power off mode by
checking to see if the fan of your power supply is off. Both an external box modem and an internal modem card can be used to support
Modem Wake Up, but if you use an external modem, you have to leave your box modem on.

2.6.11 CN9 WOL (Wake on LAN)
This feature is very similar as Wake On Modem, but it goes through local area network. To use Wake On LAN function, you must have a
network card with chipset that supports this feature, and connect a cable from LAN card to motherboard WOL connector. The system
identification information (probably IP address) is stored on network card and because there is a lot of traffic on the Ethernet, you need
to install a network management software, such as ADM, for the checking of how to wake up the system. Note that, at least 600mA ATX
standby current is required to support the LAN card for this function.
