2.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING!
Static electricity can destroy certain electronics. Make sure to follow the ESD precautions to prevent damage to the product, and injury to the user.
Make sure to adhere to the following guidelines:
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing an anti-static wristband can prevent
electrostatic discharge.
Self-grounding: Touch a grounded conductor every few minutes to discharge
any excess static buildup.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring any circuit board, place it on an
anti-static mat.
Only handle the edges of the PCB: Don't touch the surface of the
motherboard. Hold the motherboard by the edges when handling.

2.2 Unpacking Precautions

When the KINO-AH612 is unpacked, please do the following:
Follow the antistatic guidelines above.  Make sure the packing box is facing upwards when opening.  Make sure all the packing list items are present.

4.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the KINO-AH612 may result in permanent damage to the KINO-AH612 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the KINO-AH612. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the KINO-AH612 or any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple ant i-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 KINO-AH612, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the KINO-AH612.
Only handle the edges of the PCB: When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
Page 39

4.2 Installation Considerations

NOTE:
The following installation notices and installation considerations should be read and understood before the KINO-AH612 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of the KINO-AH612 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the KINO-AH612 and injury to the person installing the motherboard.
KINO-AH612
WARNING:
The installation instructions described in this manual should be carefully followed in order to prevent damage to the KINO-AH612, KINO-AH612 components and injury to the user.
Before and during the installation please DO the following:
Read the user manual:
o The user manual provides a complete description of the KINO-AH612
installation instructions and configuration options.
Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD):
o Electronic components are easily damaged by ESD. Wearing an ESD cuff
removes ESD from the body and helps prevent ESD damage.
Place the KINO-AH612 on an antistatic pad:
o When installing or configuring the motherboard, place it on an antistatic
pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage.
Page 40
Turn all power to the KINO-AH612 off:
o When working with the KINO-AH612, make sure that it is disconnected
from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system.
KINO-AH612
Before and during the installation of the KINO-AH612 DO NOT:
Remove any of the stickers on the PCB board. These stickers are required for
warranty validation.
Use the product before verifying 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 Basic Installation

WARNING:
A CPU should never be turned on without the specified cooling kit being installed. If the cooling kit (heat sink and fan) is not properly installed and the system turned on, permanent damage to the CPU, KINO-AH612 and other electronic components attached to the system may be incurred. Running a CPU without a cooling kit may also result in injury to the user.
The CPU, CPU cooling kit and DIMM are the most critical compon ents of the KINO-AH612. If one of these component is not installed the KINO-AH612 cannot run.

4.3.1 Socket LGA1155 CPU Installation

WARNING:
CPUs are expensive and sensitive components. When installing the CPU please be careful not to damage it in anyway. Make sure the CPU is installed properly and ensure the correct cooling kit is properly installed.
Do NOT touch the pins at the bottom of the CPU. When handling the CPU, only hold it on the sides.
Page 41
To install the CPU, follow the steps below.
Step 1: Disengage the load lever by pressing the lever down and slightly outwards to
KINO-AH612
clear the retention tab. Fully open the lever. See
Figure 4-1: Disengage the CPU Socket Load Lever
Step 2: Open the socket and remove the protective cover. The black protective
cover can be removed by pulling up on the tab labeled “Remove”. See
4-2.
Figure 4-1.
Figure
Page 42
Figure 4-2: Remove Protective Cover
Step 3: Inspect the CPU socket. Make sure there are no bent pins and make sure the
socket contacts are free of foreign material. If any debris is found, re move it with compressed air.
KINO-AH612
Step 4: Orientate the CPU properly. The contact array should be facing the CPU
Step 5: Correctly position the CPU. Match the Pin 1 mark with the CPU edge on the

properly aligned, the CPU should slide into the CPU socket smoothly. See
Figure 4-3.
Figure 4-3: Insert the Socket LGA1155 CPU
Step 8: Close the CPU socket. Close the load plate and pull the load back a little to
have the load plate be able to secure to the knob. Engage the load lever by pushing it back to its original position. See resistance, but will not require extreme pressure.

4.3.2 Cooling Kit Installation

WARNING:
DO NOT attempt to install a push-pin cooling fan.
The pre-installed support bracket prevents the board from bending and is ONLY compatible with captive screw type cooling fans.
Figure 4-5: Cooling Kits (CF-1156A-RS, CF-1156B-RS, CF-1156C-RS, CF-1156D-RS)
Page 44
The cooling kits can be bought from IEI. The cooling kit has a heat sink and fan.
KINO-AH612
To install the cooling kit, follow the instructions below.
WARNING:
Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of thermal paste on the bottom of the heat sink. The thermal paste between the CPU and the heat sink is important for optimum heat dissipation.
Step 1: A cooling kit bracket is pre-installed on the rear of the motherboard. See
4-6.
Figure 4-6: Cooling Kit Support Bracket
Figure
Step 2: Place the cooling kit onto the socket LGA1155 CPU. Make sure the CPU
cable can be properly routed when the cooling kit is installed.
Step 3: Mount the cooling kit. Gently place the cooling kit on top of the CPU. Make
sure the four threaded screws on the corners of the cooling kit properly pass through the holes of the cooling kit bracket.
Page 45
Step 4: Secure the cooling kit by fastening the four retention screw of the cooling kit.
Step 5: Connect the fan cable. Connect the cooling kit fan cable to the fan connector
on the KINO-AH612. Carefully route the cable and avoid heat generating chips and fan blades.

4.3.3 DIMM Installation

To install a DIMM, please follow the steps below and refer to Figure 4-7.
KINO-AH612
Page 46
Figure 4-7: DIMM Installation
Step 1: Open the DIMM socket handles. Open the two handles outwards as far as they
can. See
Step 2: Align the DIMM with the socket. Align the DIMM so the notch on the memory
lines up with the notch on the memory socket. See
Step 3: Insert the DIMM. Once aligned, press down until the DIMM is properly seated.
Clip the two handles into place. See
Step 4: Remove a DIMM. To remove a DIMM, push both handles outwards. The
memory module is ejected by a mechanism in the socket.

4.4 Jumper Settings

NOTE:
A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electrical circuit. It consists of two or three 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 KINO-AH612 is installed in the system, the jumpers must be set in accordance
Figure 4-8: Jumper Locations
with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the KINO-AH612 are listed in

may not match the colors on the rear panel. If audio plugs are plugged into the wrong jacks, sound quality will be very bad.
Step 2: Plug the audio plugs into the audio jacks. Plug the audio plugs into the audio
jacks. If the plugs on your speakers are different, an adapter will need to be used to plug them into the audio jacks.
