Step 2: Install a KINO SBC. Align the

screw holes on the SBC with the
standoffs on the bottom panel. Secure
the SBC with four screws (round head,
M3*6). Connect the other end of the
SATA cable to the SATA connector and
the SATA power connector on the SBC.

Step 3: Assemble two edge bars. Orient the bottom panel, and note the direction
of the corner notches as shown below. Align the slot of the edge bar with the edge of
the bottom panel, and assemble the edge bar to the side of the bottom panel. The
corner notches should still be visible after assembling the edge bars; if you install
them wrongly, the corner notches would be covered by the edge bars.

Step 2: Install a NANO/WAFER SBC.
Align the screw holes on the SBC with
the standoffs on the bottom panel.
Secure the SBC with four screws (round
head, M3*6).

edge bar, and then insert the other side panel into the other edge bar. Both side ends
of the side panel should properly align with the side ends of the edge bar.

Step 5: Install power button and rear
panel. Insert the power button cable into

the square hole in the front panel and clip
the button into place. Place the rear
panel on the external I/O side of the SBC.
Make sure the external I/O connectors fit
into the predrilled holes on the rear panel.
Secure the rear panel to the chassis with
two screws (flat head, M3*6, black).

Step 5: Install power button, power
connector and rear panel. Insert the

power button cable and the power
connector cable into the corresponding
holes in the rear panel. Place the rear
panel on the external I/O side of the SBC.
Make sure the external I/O connectors fit
into the predrilled holes on the rear panel.
Secure the rear panel to the chassis with
two screws (flat head, M3*6, black).

Step 6: Connect cables and additional I/O ports. Connect the power button cable,
the power LED cable and the power connector cable (BRICK-NANO/WAFER series
only) to the corresponding connectors on the SBC (refer to the QIG that came with the
SBC for detailed information).

If there are additional I/O connectors to be installed on the front panel, connect them
to the corresponding connectors on the motherboard now.

Step 7: Assemble edge bars to top panel. Align the slot of the edge bar with the
edge of the top panel, and assemble the edge bar to the side of the top panel. Please
note the direction of the corner notches as shown below.

NOTE:

For the BRICK-NANO/WAFER series, the SATA cable from the installed HDD must be
connected to the SATA connector and SATA power connector on the SBC before
installing the top panel to the chassis.

Step 8: Install top panel to chassis. Orient the top panel to position the ventilation
vents right above the CPU heat sink. Place the top panel together with the two edge
bars onto the top of chassis. Ensure both side panels fit into the slot of the edge bars.
Secure the top panel to the chassis with two screws (flat head, M3*6, black) into the
rear panel.
