This chapter explains you the instructions of how to set up your system. The additional
information shows you how to install M-Systems’ DiskOnChip and program the Watchdog

3.1 Installation Procedure
1. Turn off the power supply.
2. Insert the DIMM module (be careful with the orientation).

Configuration with Optimal Settings” feature. The Peripheral Setup and the Standard
CMOS Setup Window must be entered and configured correctly to match the particular
system configuration.

connecting the display cable and turning on the power.
3.2 Safety Precautions
3.2.1 Warning!
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your chassis or power
cable from your board whenever you work with the hardware. Do not make
connections while the power is on. Sensitive electronic components can
be damaged by sudden power surges. Only experienced electronics
personnel should open the PC chassis.
3.2.2 Caution!
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the
board. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric
charges. As a safety precaution, use a grounding wrist strap at all times.
Place all electronic components in a static-dissipative surface or static-
shielded bag when they are not in the chassis.
