Q1900TM-ITX

English

is is an Mini-ITX form factor motherboard. Before you install the motherboard,

study the conguration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard ts into it.

Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components

or change any motherboard settings.

•

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard.

Failure to do so may cause physical injuries to you and damages to motherboard

components.

•

In order to avoid damage from static electricity to the motherboard’s components,

NEVER place your motherboard directly on a carpet. Also remember to use a grounded

wrist strap or touch a safety grounded object before you handle the components.

•

Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.

•

Whenever you uninstall any components, place them on a grounded anti-static pad or

in the bag that comes with the components.

•

When placing screws to secure the motherboard to the chassis, please do not over-

tighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

Chapter 2 Installation

English

2.1 Installing Memory Modules (SO-DIMM)

is motherboard provides two 204-pin DDR3/DDR3L (Double Data Rate 3) SO-

DIMM slots. Please install the SO-DIMM module into the DDR3_A1 for the rst

priority.

e SO-DIMM only ts in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent damage

to the motherboard and the SO-DIMM if you force the SO-DIMM into the slot at

incorrect orientation.

It is not allowed to install a DDR or DDR2 memory module into a DDR3/DDR3L

slot; otherwise, this motherboard and SO-DIMM may be damaged.

Q1900TM-ITX

English

2.2 Expansion Slots (PCI Express Slots)

ere is 1 PCI Express slot and 1 mini PCI Express slot on this motherboard.

PCIe slot:

PCIE1 (PCIe 2.0 x4 slot) is used for PCI Express x4 lane width cards.

mini-PCIe slot:

MINI_PCIE1 (mini-PCIe slot) is used for WiFi module.

Before installing an expansion card, please make sure that the power supply is switched o

or the power cord is unplugged. Please read the documentation of the expansion card and

make necessary hardware settings for the card before you start the installation.

Q1900TM-ITX

English

2.5 Jumpers Setup

e illustration shows how jumpers are setup. When the jumper cap is placed on

the pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap is placed on the pins, the jumper

is “Open”. e illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1 and pin2 are “Short”

when a jumper cap is placed on these 2 pins.

Clear CMOS Jumper

(CLRCMOS1)

(see p.5, No. 20)

CLRCMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. To clear and reset the system

parameters to default setup, please turn o the computer and unplug the power

cord from the power supply. Aer waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper cap to

short pin2 and pin3 on CLRCMOS1 for 5 seconds. However, please do not clear

the CMOS right aer you update the BIOS. If you need to clear the CMOS when

you just nish updating the BIOS, you must boot up the system rst, and then shut

it down before you do the clear-CMOS action. Please be noted that the password,

date, time, and user default prole will be cleared only if the CMOS battery is

removed.

RESET (Reset Switch):

Connect to the reset switch on the chassis front panel. Press the reset switch to restart the

computer if the computer freezes and fails to perform a normal restart.

PLED (System Power LED):

Connect to the power status indicator on the chassis front panel. e LED is on when the

system is operating. e LED keeps blinking when the system is in S1/S3 sleep state. e

LED is o when the system is in S4 sleep state or powered o (S5).

HDLED (Hard Drive Activity LED):

Connect to the hard drive activity LED on the chassis front panel. e LED is on when the

hard drive is reading or writing data.

e front panel design may dier by chassis. A front panel module mainly consists of power

switch, reset switch, power LED, hard drive activity LED, speaker and etc. When connect-

ing your chassis front panel module to this header, make sure the wire assignments and the

pin assignments are matched correctly.

Onboard headers and connectors are NOT jumpers. Do NOT place jumper caps over these

headers and connectors. Placing jumper caps over the headers and connectors will cause

permanent damage to the motherboard.
