3.1.4 On-board Jumpers
NOTE:
A jumper is a metal bridge that 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 mean
connecting the pins of the jumper with
the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper
means removing the plastic clip from a
jumper.

4.1 Anti-static Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the WAFER-LUKE. (Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.) It is
therefore critical that whenever the WAFER-LUKE (or any other electrical component) is
handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wrist band: - Wearing a simple anti-static wrist band 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.
WAFER-LUKE
4.2 Installation Considerations
NOTE:
The following installation notices and installation considerations should be
read and understood before the motherboard is installed. All installation
notices pertaining to the installation of the Motherboard should be strictly
adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe
damage of the motherboard and injury to the person installing the
motherboard.
4.2.1 Installation Notices
Before and during the installation of the WAFER-LUKE motherboard, please do the
following:
Page 68
Read the user manual
o The user manual provides a complete description of the WAFER-LUKE
motherboard, installation instructions and configuration options.
IEI® Technology, Corp.
Page 69

WAFER-LUKE
Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD)
o Electronic components are easily damaged by ESD. Wearing an ESD cuff
removes ESD from the user’s body and help to prevent ESD damage.
Place the Motherboard on an antistatic pad
o When the Motherboard is installed and configured, place it on an
antistatic pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage.
Turn off all power to the WAFER-LUKE motherboard
o When working with the Motherboard, make sure that it is disconnected
from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system.
Before and during the installation of the WAFER-LUKEmotherboard DO NOT:
remove any of the stickers on the PCB board. These stickers are required for
warranty validation.
use the product before all the cables and power connectors are properly
connected.
allow screws to come in contact with the PCB circuit, connector pins, or its
components.
4.3 Unpacking
NOTE:
If any of the items listed below are missing when the WAFER-LUKE is
unpacked, do not proceed with the installation and contact the reseller or
vendor Motherboard was purchased from.
4.3.1 Unpacking Precautions
Some components on WAFER-LUKE are very sensitive to static electricity and can be
damaged by a sudden rush of power. To protect it from being damaged during the
unpacking process, follow these precautions:
Page 69
Page 70

Do not place a PCB on top of an anti-static bag. Only the inside of the bag is safe from
static discharge.
4.3.2 Checklist
When WAFER-LUKE is unpacked please make sure the package contains the following
items.
WAFER-LUKE
The user should ground themself to remove any static charge before touching
the WAFER-LUKE. To ground themselves users can wear a grounded wrist
strap at all times or frequently touching any conducting materials that is
connected to the ground.
Handle the WAFER-LUKE by its edges. Do not touch the IC chips, leads or
circuitry unneccessarily.

DIMM modules
Peripheral devices
4.4.3 DIMM Module Installation
4.4.3.1 Purchasing the Memory Module
When purchasing DIMM modules, the following considerations should be taken into
account:
The DIMM module can support a memory chip with a maximum size of 1GB
The DIMM module can have a of 333MHz or 400MHz
Page 71
Page 72

WAFER-LUKE
The DIMM can be either single-sided or dual-sided.
4.4.3.2 DIMM Module Installation
To install the SO-DIMM module please follow the steps below.
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
Locate the SO-DIMM module connector.
Push the SO-DIMM chip into the socket at an angle. (See Figure 4-1)
Gently pull the arms of the SO-DIMM socket out and push the rear of the
SO-DIMM module down. (See Figure 4-1)
Release the arms on the SO-DIMM socket. They clip into place and secure the
SO-DIMM module in the socket. Step 0:
