2.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING!
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the KINO-945GSE2 may result in permanent damage to the KINO-945GSE2 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the KINO-945GSE2. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the KINO-945GSE2, or any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
KINO-945GSE2 Motherboard
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-945GSE2, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the KINO-945GSE2.
Only handle the edges of the PCB:- When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.

2.2 Unpacking Precautions

When the KINO-945GSE2 is unpacked, please do the following:
Follow the anti-static precautions outlined in Section 76 Make sure the packing box is facing upwards so the KINO-945GSE2 does not
fall out of the box.
Make sure all the components are present.

4.1 Anti-static Precautions

WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the KINO-945GSE2 may result in permanent damage to the KINO-945GSE2 and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the KINO-945GSE2. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the KINO-945GSE2, or any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
KINO-945GSE2 Motherboard
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-945GSE2, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the KINO-945GSE2.
Only handle the edges of the PCB:-: When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
Page 48
KINO-945GSE2 Motherboard

4.2 Installation Considerations

NOTE:
The following installation notices and installation considerations should be read and understood before the KINO-945GSE2 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of the KINO-945GSE2 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the KINO-945GSE2 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-945GSE2, KINO-945GSE2 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-945GSE2
installation instructions and configuration options.
Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD):
o Electronic components are easily damag ed by ESD. Wearing an ESD cuff
removes ESD from the body and helps prevent ESD damage.
Place the KINO-945GSE2 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-945GSE2 off:
o When working with the KINO-945GSE2, make sure that it is disconne cted
from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system.
Page 49
Before and during the installation of the KINO-945GSE2 DO NOT:
DO NOT remove any of the stickers on the PCB board. These stickers are
required for warranty validation.
DO NOT use the product before verifying all the cables and power connectors
are properly connected.
DO NOT allow screws to come in contact with the PCB circuit, co nnector pins,
or its components.

4.3 Unpacking

When the KINO-945GSE2 is unpacked, please check all the unpacking list items listed in Chapter 2 are indeed present. If any of the unpacking list items are not available please contact the KINO-945GSE2 vendor reseller/vendor where the KINO-945GSE2 was purchased or contact an IEI sales representative.
KINO-945GSE2 Motherboard

4.4 SO-DIMM Installation

WARNING:
Using incorrectly specified SO-DIMM may cause permanently damage the KINO-945GSE2. Please make sure the purchased SO-DIMM complies with the memory specifications of the KINO-945GSE2. SO-DIMM specifications compliant with the KINO-945GSE2 are listed in Chapter 1.
To install a SO-DIMM into a SO-DIMM socket, please follow the steps below and refer to Figure 4-1.
Page 50
KINO-945GSE2 Motherboard
Figure 4-1: SO-DIMM Installation
Step 1: Locate the SO-DIMM socket. Place the KINO-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 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
Figure 4-1)
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. (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 4-1)

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.
KINO-945GSE2 Motherboard
Before the KINO-945GSE2 is installed in the system, the jumpers must be set in accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the KINO-945GSE2 are listed in
6Table 4-1.

If the KINO-945GSE2 fails to boot due to improper BIOS settings, the clear CMOS jumper clears the CMOS data and resets the system BIOS information. To do this, use the jumper cap to close pins 2 and 3 for a few seconds then reinstall the jumper clip back to pins 1 and 2.
If the “CMOS Settings Wrong” message is displayed during the boot up process, the fault may be corrected by pressing the F1 to enter the CMOS Setup menu. Do one of the following:
Enter the correct CMOS setting  Load Optimal Defaults  Load Failsafe Defaults.
After having done one of the above, save the changes and exit the CMOS Setup menu.

4.6 Chassis Installation

4.6.1 Airflow

WARNING:
Airflow is critical to the cooling of the CPU and other onboard components. The chassis in which the KINO-945GSE2 must have air vents to allow cool air to move into the system and hot air to move out.
The KINO-945GSE2 must be installed in a chassis with ventilation holes on the sides allowing airflow to travel through the heat sink surface. In a system with an individual power supply unit, the cooling fan of a power supply can also help generate airflow
Page 60
through the board surface.

Parallel Port I/O port address is 278 Parallel Port I/O port address is 3BC
The normal parallel port mode is the standard mode for parallel port operation.
Parallel port outputs are 8-bits long. Inputs are accomplished by reading 4 of the 8 bits on the status register.
The parallel port operates in the enhanced parallel port mode (EPP). The EPP mode supports bi-directional communication between the system and the parallel port device and the transmission rates between the two are much faster than the Normal mode.
ECP+EPP
Parallel Port IRQ [IRQ7]
Use the Parallel Port IRQ selection to set the parallel port interrupt address.
IRQ5
IRQ7 DEFAULT
IRQ5 is assigned as the parallel port interrupt address IRQ7 is assigned as the parallel port interrupt address
The parallel port operates in the extended capabilities port (ECP) mode. The ECP mode supports bi-directional communication between the system and the parallel port device and the transmission rates between the two are much faster than the Normal mode
The parallel port is also be compatible with EPP devices described above
