Installing the Motherboard

2-1. Safety Precautions

2-2. Installing the motherboard in a Chassis

This motherboard carries a Mini ITX form factor of 170 x 170 mm. Choose a chassis

that accommodates this form factor. Make sure that the I/O template in the chassis

matches the I/O ports installed on the rear edge of the motherboard. Most system

chassis have mounting brackets installed in the chassis, which corresponds to the

holes in the motherboard. Place the motherboard over the mounting brackets and

secure the motherboard onto the mounting brackets with screws.

Follow these safety precautions when installing the motherboard:

• Wear a grounding strap attached to a grounded device to avoid damage

from static electricity.

• Discharge static electricity by touching the metal case of a safely grounded

object before working on the motherboard.

• Leave components in the static-proof bags.

• Always remove the AC power by unplugging the power cord from the power

outlet before installing or removing the motherboard or other hardware

components.

Do not over-tighten the screws as this can stress the motherboard.

2-3. Checking Jumper Settings

This section explains how to set jumpers for correct configuration of the

motherboard.

To avoid the system instability after clearing CMOS, we recommend users to

enter the main BIOS setting page to “Load Default Settings” and then “Save

and Exit Setup”.

The following illustration shows the location of the motherboard jumpers. Pin 1 is

labeled.

2-4-1. Installing Memory Modules

• This motherboard accommodates one memory module. It can support

one 204-pin DDR3 1333/1066.

• Do not remove any memory module from its antistatic packaging until

you are ready to install it on the motherboard. Handle the modules only

by their edges. Do not touch the components or metal parts. Always wear

a grounding strap when you handle the modules.

• You must install one module in the slot. Total memory capacity is 8 GB.

• Refer to the following to install the memory modules.

Install the DIMM module into the slot and press it firmly down until it

seats correctly. Check that the cutouts on the DIMM module edge

connector match the notches in the DIMM slot.

2-4-2. Installing Add-on Cards

The slots on this motherboard are designed to hold expansion cards and connect

them to the system bus. Expansion slots are a means of adding or enhancing the

motherboard’s features and capabilities. With these efficient facilities, you can

increase the motherboard’s capabilities by adding hardware that performs tasks

that are not part of the basic system.

Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for the card

carefully. If the card is not Plug and Play, you may have to manually

configure the card before installation.

PCIE Slot The PCI Express x1 slot is fully compliant to the PCI Express Base

Specification revision 2.0.

miniPCIE

The mini PCIE (half-card) supports extension cards with PCIE signal.

BAT-I USER MANUAL

1 Remove a blanking plate from the system case corresponding to the slot

you are going to use.

2 Install the edge connector of the add-on card into the expansion slot.

Ensure that the edge connector is correctly seated in the slot.

3 Secure the metal bracket of the card to the system case with a screw.

For some add-on cards, for example graphics adapters and network adapters,

you have to install drivers and software before you can begin using the add-on

card.

Follow these instructions to install an add-on card:

Please refer the following illustrations to install the add-on card:

Follow these instructions to install a wireless card or TV tuner card:

1 Insert a wireless card or TV tuner card into the miniPCIE Slot.

2 Lower the handle and tighten the screws.

Install the LAN Card in the PCIE X1 slot

The motherboard has one USB 2.0 header supporting two USB 2.0 ports.

Additionally, some computer cases have USB 2.0 ports at the front of the case. If you

have this kind of case, use auxiliary USB 2.0 connector to connect the front-mounted

ports to the motherboard.

1. F_USB: Front Panel USB 2.0 Header

Please make sure that the USB cable has the same pin assignment as

indicated above. A different pin assignment may cause damage or system

hang-up.

5. LVDS: LVDS Connector (Optional)

1. You can connect the large end of the cable to the LED panel, and connect

the other small end to the slot on the motherboard.

2. Due to the chipset limitation, using dual displays LVDS(AIO) + VGA or

LVDS(AIO) + HDMI will cause the problem that you may not enter BIOS setup

or have the display problem.

BAT-I USER MANUAL

The front panel audio header allows the user to install auxiliary front-oriented

microphone and line-out ports for easier access. This header supports HD audio by

default. If you want connect an AC’ 97 front panel audio to HD onboard headers,

please set as below picture.

6. F_AUDIO: Front Panel Audio Header

If you use AC’ 97 Front Panel, please tick off the option of “ Disabled Front Panel

Detect ” . If you use HD Audio Front Panel, please don’ t tick off “Disabled Front Panel

Detect ” .
