3.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:

Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the WAFER-8522 may result in permanent damage to the WAFER-8522 and severe injury to the user.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the WAFER-8522. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the WAFER-8522, or any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.

WAFER-8522 Motherboard

 Wear an anti-static wristband: - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can

help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.

 Self-grounding:- Before handling the board touch any grounded conducting

material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the ground.

 Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the WAFER-8522, place it on an

antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the WAFER-8522.

 Only handle the edges of the PCB:-: When handling the PCB, hold the PCB

by the edges.

3.2 Unpacking

3.2.1 Unpacking Precautions

When the WAFER-8522 is unpacked, please do the following:

 Follow the anti-static precautions outlined in Section 3.1.

5.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:

Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the WAFER-8522 may result in permanent damage to the WAFER-8522 and severe injury to the user.

WAFER-8522 Motherboard

 Wear an anti-static wristband: - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can

help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.

 Self-grounding:- Before handling the board touch any grounded conducting

material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the ground.

 Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the WAFER-8522, place it on an

antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the WAFER-8522.

 Only handle the edges of the PCB:-: When handling the PCB, hold the PCB

by the edges.

Page 62

5.3 SO-DIMM Module Installation and CF Card Installation

5.3.1 SO-DIMM Installation

WARNING:

Using incorrectly specified SO-DIMM may cause permanently damage the WAFER-8522. Please make sure the purchased SO-DIMM complies with the memory specifications of the WAFER-8522. SO-DIMM specifications compliant with the WAFER-8522 are listed in Chapter 2.

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

Figure 5-1.

Figure 5-1: SO-DIMM Installation

Step 1: Locate the SO-DIMM socket. Place the WAFER-8522 on an anti-st atic pad with

the solder side facing up.

Step 2: Align the SO-DIMM with the socket. The SO-DIMM must be oriented in such a

way 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

Page 65

Page 80

Figure 5-1)

Step 4: Open the SO-DIMM socket arms. Gently pull the arms of the SO-DIMM socket

WAFER-8522 Motherboard

out and push the rear of the SO-DIMM down. (See

Step 5: Secure the SO-DIMM. Release the arms on the SO-DIMM socket. They clip into

place and secure the SO-DIMM in the socket.Step 0:

Figure 5-1)

5.3.2 CF Card Installation

NOTE:

The WAFER-8522 can support CF Type II cards. For the complete specifications of the supported CF cards please refer to Chapter 2.

To install a CF Type II card onto the WAFER-8522, please follow the steps below:

Step 1: Locate the CF card socket. Place the WAFER-8522 on an anti-static pad and

locate the CF card.

Step 2: Align the CF card. Make sure the CF card is properly aligned with the CF

socket.

Step 3: Insert the CF card. Gently insert the CF card into the socket making sure the

socket pins are properly inserted into the socket. See

Figure 5-2. Step 0:

5.4 Jumper Settings

NOTE:

A jumper is a met al bridge t hat is used to close an electrical circuit. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To CLOSE/SHORT a jumper means connecting the pins of the jumper with the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper means removing the plastic clip from a jumper.

Before the WAFER-8522 is installed in the system, the jumpers must be set in accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the WAFER-8522 are listed in
