2.2 Installations

2.2.1 SO-DIMM Installation

To install a SO-DIMM into a SO-DIMM socket, please follow the steps below and refer to picture.

Figure 2.4: Installation of Memory Module

Step 1:

Locate the SO-DIMM socket. Place the NANO-945GSE2 on an anti-static pad with the solder side

facing up.

Step 2:

Align the SO-DIMM with the socket. The SO-DIMM must be oriented in such away that the notch in

the middle of the SO-DIMM must be aligned with the plastic bridge in the socket.

Step 3:

Insert the SO-DIMM. Push the SO-DIMM chip into the socket at an angle. (See Figure 2.3)

Step 4:

Open the SO-DIMM socket arms. Gently pull the arms of the SO-DIMM socket out and push the rear

of the SO-DIMM down

2. To clear the CMOS settings, use the jumper cap to close pins 2 and 3 for about 3 seconds
then reinstall the jumper clip back to pins 1 and 2.

3. Power on the system again;

4. When entering the POST screen, press the <DEL> key to enter CMOS Setup Utility to load
optimal defaults;

5. After the above operations, save changes and exit BIOS Setup.

3. BAT (1.25.0MM 1X2) Battery port: a 3.3V battery is embedded to provide power for

Before connection, make sure that pin out of the USB adapter is in accordance with that of the
said tables. Any inconformity may cause system down and even hardware damages.

10. JCOM (2.0MM 2X6) COM1/2 setup jumper: pin 1~6 are used to select signal out of pin

9 of COM1 port; pin 7~12 are used to select output type for COM2 port (RS232 or RS422/485
Full-Duplex).

Note:

1. As determined by its hardware design, the board features full-duplex RS485 communication.
Like RS422, a four-wire connection is necessary.

2. Since COM2 and COM22 use the same address, they cannot work at the same time.

11. IDE (2.0MM 2X22) IDE connector: the motherboard provides a 44-pin IDE connector for

connection of 2.5' IDE hard disk drivers and supports up to 2 IDE devices.
