4.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the KINO-HM551 may result in permanent damage to the KINO-HM551 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the KINO-HM551. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the KINO-HM551 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
KINO-HM551
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-HM551, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the KINO-HM551.
Only handle the edges of the PCB: When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
Page 40
KINO-HM551

4.2 Installation Considerations

NOTE:
The following installation notices and installation considerations should be read and understood before the KINO-HM551 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of the KINO-HM551 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the KINO-HM551 and injury to the person installing the motherboard.

4.2.1 Installation Notices

WARNING:
The installation instructions described in this manual should be carefully followed in order to prevent damage to the KINO-HM551, KINO-HM551 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-HM551
installation instructions and configuration options.
Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD):
o Electronic components are easily dama ged by ESD. Wearing an ESD cuff
removes ESD from the body and helps prevent ESD damage.
Place the KINO-HM551 on an antistatic pad:
o When installing or configuring the motherboard, place it on an antistatic
pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage.
Turn all power to the KINO-HM551 off:
Page 41
o When working with the KINO-HM551, make sure that it is disconnected
Before and during the installation of the KINO-HM551 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 Unpacking

When the KINO-HM551 is unpacked, please check all the unpacking list items listed in Chapter 3 are indeed present. If any of the unpacking list items are not available please
KINO-HM551
from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system.
contact the KINO-HM551 vendor reseller/vendor where the KINO-HM551 was purchased or contact an IEI sales representative.

4.4 CPU, CPU Cooling Kit and SO-DIMM 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-HM551 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 components of the KINO-HM551. If one of these component is not installed the KINO-HM551 cannot run.

KINO-HM551

4.4.1 Socket G1 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.
To install a socket G1 CPU onto the KINO-HM551, follow the steps below:
WARNING:
When handling the CPU, only hold it on the sides. DO NOT touch the pins at the bottom of the CPU.
Step 1: Unlock the CPU retention screw. When shipped, the retention screw of the
CPU socket should be in the unlocked position. If it is not in the unlocked position, use a screwdriver to unlock the screw. See Figure 4-1.
Page 43
Figure 4-1: Make sure the CPU socket retention screw is unlocked
KINO-HM551
Step 2: Inspect the CPU socket. Make sure there are no bent pins an d make sure the
socket contacts are free of foreign material. If any debris is found, remove it with compressed air.
Step 3: Correctly Orientate the CPU. Make sure the IHS (integrated heat sink) side is
facing upwards.
Step 4: Correctly position the CPU. Match the Pin 1 mark with the cut edge on the
CPU socket. See Figure 4-1.
Step 5: Align the CP
socket.
Step 6: Insert the CPU. Gently insert the CPU into the socket. If the CPU pins are
properly aligned, the CPU should slide into the CPU socket smoothly.
Step 7: Lock the retention screw. Rotate the retention screw into the locked position.
See Figure 4-2.

Figure 4-2: Lock the CPU Socket Retention Screw

4.4.2 Socket G1 Cooling Kit Installation

An IEI Socket G1 CPU cooling kit can be purchased separately. (See Chapter 3) The cooling kit comprises a CPU heat sink and a cooling fan.
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.
To install the cooling kit, please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Install the cooling kit bracket. A cooling kit bracket is installed on the rear of
the motherboard. Align the bracket with the four retention holes at the back of the motherboard. Once properly aligned, insert four retention screws from the front of the motherboard.
Page 45
Figure 4-3: Cooling Kit Support Bracket
Step 2: Open the lever at the top of the heat sink. Lift the lever at the top of the
KINO-HM551
cooling kit to loosen the cooling kit clamps.
Step 3: Secure the cooling kit. Gently place the heat sink and cooling kit onto the CPU.
Make sure the hooks are properly secured to the bracket. To secure the cooling kit, close the top lever.
Step 4: Connect the fan cable. Connect the cooling kit fan cable to the fan connector

4.5 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.
