Opening the Chassis

1

Step 1

Remove the screws on front and rear side of the chassis.

Step 2

Remove the screws on right and left side of the chassis.

Step 3

Lift up the chassis top cover.

Installing the Memory

2

Step 1

First remove the hard disk brackets by unscrewing the four screws.

Step 2

Unscrew the four screws in order to remove the hard disk plate to
locate the memory heatsink.

Step 3

Unscrew the two screws to remove the memory heatsink in order to
locate the memory slot.

Step 4

Insert the memory module into the SODIMM socket at the 45 degree
angle. Then push down until the memory module snaps into place. The
SODIMM socket has two locking mechanisms that will click once the
memory module has been fully inserted.

Step 5

Peel the protective layers off of the memory thermal pad. Then apply
the thermal pad on the bottom of memory heatsink.

Step 6

Apply the thermal grease on the memory heatsink joint using the
syringe injection before placing the memory heatsink.

Step 7

Reinstall the memory heatsink cover. Secure the memory heatsink with
two screws.

Installing the SATA

Step 1

Remove the SATA 2.5-inch hard disk mounting bracket.

Step 2

Prepare the hard disk screws and rubber washer. Align the mounting
holes on the SATA 2.5” hard disk with the mounting holes on the hard
disk mounting bracket. Secure the hard disk in place with four hard
disk screws.

2.5-inch hard disk

Step 3

Align the mounting bracket with the mounting holes on the hard disk
plate. Secure the bracket in place with four screws. Then connect the
SATA power and data cables of the hard disk, also connect the other
ends of the cables to the SATA port and SATA power port onto the
board.

Locating SATA and

The mainboard in the ART-3000 system supports two SATA ports
(SATA1 & SATA2) and two 3-pin SATA power (S-Power 1 & S-Power 2)
via onboard connectors. Each SATA port supports data transfer rates
up to 300MB/s enabling fast data transfer with independent DMA
operation. The SATA power connectors have 5V power source.

SATA Power Ports

Note:

SATA1 & SATA2 ports can only supports 2.5-inch hard disk drive.

Installing the

Step 1

Locate the CompactFlash access cover on the rear side of the ART­3000 and remove the screw to remove the access cover.

Step 2

Ensure the proper orientation of CompactFlash card with the
CompactFlash slot before inserting.

Step 1 (Default)

Prepare the left and right brackets and four screws.

Step 2

Fasten the mounting brackets, one each to the left bottom and right
bottom side of ART-3000 chassis with four screws.

mounting Brackets

Step 3 (Optional)

Position the mounting brackets on both upper sides of the chassis with
four screws.

Step 4

Secure the both mounting brackets to the wall/table with four screws.

Important:

When connecting the SATA power cables via onboard S-Power 1
and S-Power 2 connectors, always make sure that the power plug
is inserted in the proper orientation and pins are properly aligned.

Step 3

Replace the CompactFlash access cover. Secure the CompactFlash
access cover with the screw.
