6. Rotate mark of screw-nut to face the “CLOSED”.

7. Place the CPU cooling fan atop the CPU surface.

8. Push down the opposite side of the ZIF clip and hook it.

9. Connect the cooling fan cable to the socket. Be careful not to place the

cable on the CPU cooling fan.

Installations

Removing a CPU:

1. Before removing the CPU, turn off the IP-4MTS6B series power; then

wait for about 20 minutes until the heat radiation plate of the cooling fan and the CPU cools down.

2. Rotate mark of screw-nut to face the “OPEN”.

3. To remove the CPU. Note: The CPU and the heat radiation plate are hot. They may cause

burns.

To remove the CPU, reverse the installation steps.

2.1.2 Heat Sink Installation

Make sure that good contact is made between the processors and the heat sinks & fan. Insufficient contact, incorrect types of heat sinks, fans, or thermal compound used or improper amount of thermal compound applied on the CPU die can cause the processors to overheat, which may crash the system.

Figure 4: Heat Sink Installation

Installations

2.1.3 Memory Module Installation

Figure 5 display the notch marks and what they should look like on your DIMM memory module.

DIMMs have 184-pins and two notches, that will match with the onboard DIMM socket. DIMM modules are installed by placing the chip firmly into the socket at a 90-degree angle and pressing straight d own (figure 6) until it fits tightly into the DIMM socket.

Figure 5: DIMM Memory and 184-pins Socket

Figure 6: Memory Installation

Installations

Carefully follow the steps below in order to install the DIMMs:

1. To avoid generating static electricity and damaging the DIMM, ground

yourself by touching a grounded metal surface or using a ground scrap before you touch the DIMM.

2. Do not touch the connector of the DIMM. Dirt residue may cause a

malfunction.

3. Hold the DIMM with its notch to the front side of the IP-4MTS6B series

and insert it completely into the socket. A DIMM should be inserted into the inner socket first. Guiding the hole at each end of the DIMM over the retaining post at each end of the DIMM socket.

4. If you install two DIMMs, install the second DIMM using the same

procedure as above.

5. If DIMM does not go in smoothly, do not force it. Pull it all the way out

and try again.

6. Make sure the DIMM is properly installed and locked by the tabs on both

sides of the socket.

Removing a DIMM:

To remove the DIMM, use your fingers or a small screwdriver to carefully push away the plastic tabs that secure the DI MM at each end. Lift it out of the socket.

Make sure you store the DIMM in an anti-static bag and must be populated the same size and manufactory of memory modules.

Installations

2.1.4 Setting Jumpers

There are jumpers on the Embedded Board of the IP-4MTS6B series. You can set the jumpers to make the necessary operations.

Figure 7: Jumper Connector

For any three-pins jumpers (Figure 7), the jumper setting is 1-2 when the jumper connects pins 1 and 2. The setting is 2-3 when pins 2 and 3 are connected and so on. You see one of the lines surrounding a jumper, whi ch indicates pin NO.1.

To move a jumper from one position to another, use needle-nose pliers or tweezers to pull the pin cap off the pins and move it to the desired position.

AWARD BIOS SETUP

3.1 BIOS Instructions

Award’s ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program, which allows user to modify the basic system configuration and hardware parameters. The modified data will be stored in a battery-backed CMOS, so that data will be retained even when the power is turned off. In general, the information saved in the CMOS RAM will stay unchanged unless there is a configuration change in the system, such as hard drive replacement or a device is added.

It is possible for the CMOS battery to fail, this will cause data loss in the CMOS only. If this does happen you will need to reconfigure your BIOS settings.

Award BIOS Setup

3.14 Supervisor/User Password Setting

You can set either supervisor or user password, or both of then. The

differences between are: Set Supervisor Password: can enter and change the options of the setup

menus. Set User Password: just can only enter but do not have the right to change

the options of the setup menus. When you select this function, the following message will appear at the center of the screen to assist you in creating a password.

ENTER PASSWORD:

Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>. The password typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS memory. You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press <Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection and not enter a password.

To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the password. A message will confirm the password will be disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.

PASSWORD DISABLED.

When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of your system configuration.

Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS to request a password every time your system is rebooted. This would prevent unauthorized use of your computer.

You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features Setup Menu and its Security option (see Section 3). If the Security option i s set to “System”, the password will be required both at boot and at entry to Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when trying to enter Setup.

Save & Exit Setup

Pressing <Enter> on this item asks for confirmation:

Save to CMOS and EXIT (Y/N)? Y

Pressing “Y” stores the selections made in the menus in CMOS – a special section of memory that stays on after you turn your system off. The next time you boot your computer, the BIOS configures your system according to the Setup selections stored in CMOS. After saving the values the system is restarted again.

Exit Without Saving

Pressing <Enter> on this item asks for confirmation:

Quit without saving (Y/N)? Y

This allows you to exit Setup without storing in CMOS any change. The previous selections remain in effect. This exits the Setup utility and restarts your computer.
