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.
ICE-QM770 COM Express Module
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 ICE-QM770 is unpacked, please do the following:
Follow the antistatic guidelines above.
Make sure the packing box is facing upwards whe n opening.
Make sure all the packing list items are present.

Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the
ICE-QM770 may result in permanent damage to the ICE-QM770 and
severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the ICE-QM770. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore
critical that whenever the ICE-QM770 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
ICE-QM770 COM Express Module
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 ICE-QM770, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the
ICE-QM770.
Only handle the edges of the PCB:-: When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
4.2 Installation Considerations
NOTE:
The following installation notices and installation considerations should
be read and understood before installation. All installation notices must
Page 28
be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead
to severe damage and injury to the person performing the installation.
ICE-QM770 COM Express Module
WARNING:
The installation instructions described in this manual should be
carefully followed in order to prevent damage to the components and
injury to the user.
Before and during the installation please DO the following:
Read the user manual:
oThe user manual provides a complete description of the ICE-QM770
installation instructions and configuration options.
Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD):
oElectronic components are easily damaged by ESD. Wearing an ESD cuff
removes ESD from the body and helps prevent ESD damage.
Place the ICE-QM770 on an antistatic pad:
oWhen installing or configuring the motherboard, place it on an antistatic
pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage.
Turn all power to the ICE-QM770 off:
oWhen working with the ICE-QM770, 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 ICE-QM770 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 Socket G2 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 th e correct cooling kit i s properly in stalle d.
To install a socket G2 CPU onto the ICE-QM770, follow the steps below:
WARNING:
When handling the CPU, only hold it on the sides. DO NOT touch the
ICE-QM770 COM Express Module
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 30
Figure 4-1: Unlock CPU socket retention screw
ICE-QM770 COM Express Module
Step 2: 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, 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
Step 5: Align the CPU pins. Carefully align the CPU pins with the holes in the CPU
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.
Figure 4-2.
See
Figure 4-1.

4.4 SO-DIMM Installation
WARNING:
Using incorrectly specified SO-DIMM may cause permanent damage to
the ICE-QM770. Please make sure the purchased SO-DIMM complies
with the memory specifications of the ICE-QM770. SO-DIMM
specifications compliant with the ICE-QM770 are listed in Chapter 1.
To install a SO-DIMM into a SO-DIMM socket, please follow the steps below and refer to
Figure 4-3.
ICE-QM770 COM Express Module
Figure 4-3: SO-DIMM Installation
Step 1: Locate the SO-DIMM socket. Place the ICE-QM770 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 4-3)
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

4.6 Mounting the ICE-QM770 to an Optional Baseboard
NOTE:
Baseboard can be designed by the end user, customized by IEI, or
purchased from IEI. For more information visit the IEI website
(
www.ieiworld.com) or contact an IEI sales representative.
WARNING:
Never run the COM Express module without the cooling kit. The
heatspreader plate shipped with the ICE-QM770 acts as a thermal
interface between the module and the cooling kit. The cooling kit must
be installed on the heatspreader plate to maintain proper operating
temperatures. Make sure to maintain the heatspreader plate
temperature under 60°C in operation.
Follow the steps below to install the ICE-QM770 to the optional baseboard.
Step 1: Align the two COM Express connectors on the reverse side of ICE-QM770 with
Page 34
the corresponding connectors on the baseboard. Gently push the COM Express
module down to ensure the connectors are properly connected (
Figure 4-5).
