1.1 Introduction

Figure 1-1: gKINO-DMF
gKINO-DMF SBC
The gKINO-DMF series is a Mini-ITX form factor single bard computer. It has an on-board AMD RX-421BD or RX-216GD processor, and supports two 260-pin 2400 MHz dual-channel DDR4 ECC unbuffered SDRAM SO-DIMM slots with up to 64.0 GB of memory.
The gKINO-DMF series includes two external HDMI 1.4 connectors and one external Dual-mode DisplayPort (DisplayPort++) connector for triple independent display which support up to 4K resolution.
Expansion and I/O include one PCIe x8 slot, one PCIe Mini slot, one M.2 B-key slot for expansion, four USB 3.0 connectors on the rear panel, four USB 2.0 connectors by pin header and two SATA 6Gb/s connectors. Serial device connectivity is provided by two internal RS-232 connectors, two internal RS-232/422/485 connectors and two ccTalk connectors. Two RJ-45 GbE connectors provide the system with smooth connections to an external LAN.

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.
gKINO-DMF SBC
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 gKINO-DMF 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.
