1.0 Introduction This User Guide provides step-by-step installation instructions for these products: 1.1 Intel® NUC Kit NUC11ATKPE Intel® NUC Kit NUC11ATKC4 Intel® NUC Kit NUC11ATKC2 Before You Begin CAUTIONS The steps in this guide assume you’re familiar with computer terminology and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and modifying computer equipment.
To avoid injury, be careful of: Sharp pins on connectors Sharp pins on circuit boards Rough edges and sharp corners on the chassis Hot components (such as SSDs, processors, voltage regulators, and heat sinks) Damage to wires that could cause a short circuit Observe all warnings and cautions that instruct you to refer computer servicing to qualified technical personnel. 1.
2.0 Open the Chassis Unscrew the four corner screws on the bottom of the chassis and lift the cover.
3.0 Install and Remove System Memory Intel NUC Kits NUC11ATKPE, NUC11ATKC4, and NUC11ATKC2 have two 260-pin DDR4 SO-DIMM memory slots Memory requirements: 1.2V low voltage memory 2933 MHz SO-DIMMs Non-ECC Up to 32 GB total (2x 16GB memory modules) Find compatible system memory modules at the Intel® Product Compatibility Tool: 3.1 NUC11ATKPE NUC11ATKC4 NUC11ATKC2 Install SO-DIMMs If you plan to install just one SO-DIMM, install it in the lower memory socket.
3.2 Remove SO-DIMMs To remove a SO-DIMM, follow these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" in Section 1.1. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the computer. Turn off the computer. Remove the AC power cord from the computer. Remove the computer’s cover. Gently spread the retaining clips at each end of the SO-DIMM socket. The SO-DIMM pops out of the socket. Hold the SO-DIMM by the edges, lift it away from the socket, and store it in an anti-static package.
4.0 Install an M.2 SSD Intel NUC Kits NUC11ATKPE, NUC11ATKC4, and NUC11ATKC2 support 80mm and 42mm SSDs. Find compatible M.2 SSDs at the Intel® Product Compatibility Tool: NUC11ATKPE NUC11ATKC4 NUC11ATKC2 If you’re installing an 80mm M.2 SSD: 1. Remove the small silver screw from the 80mm metal standoff on the motherboard. 2. Align the small notch at the bottom edge of the M.2 card with the key in the connector. 3. Insert the bottom edge of the M.2 card into the connector. 4.
If you’re installing a 42mm M.2 SSD: 1. Remove the small silver screw from the metal standoff on the motherboard. 2. Move the standoff from the 80mm position to the 42mm position. 3. Align the small notch at the bottom edge of the M.2 card with the key in the connector. 4. Insert the bottom edge of the M.2 card into the connector. 5. Secure the card to the standoff with the small silver screw.
5.0 Close the Chassis After all components have been installed, close the Intel NUC chassis. Intel recommends this be done by hand with a screwdriver to avoid over-tightening and possibly damaging the screws.
6.0 Use the VESA Bracket (Optional) Follow these instructions to attach and use the VESA mount bracket: 1. Using the four small black screws that were included in the box, attach the VESA bracket to the back of the monitor or TV. 2. Attach the two slightly larger black screws to the bottom chassis cover of the Intel NUC.
3. Slide the Intel NUC onto the VESA mount bracket.
7.0 Connect Power Country-specific power plug attachments are included in the box. 1. Choose the attachment for your region. 2. Connect AC power. Each Intel NUC model includes either a region-specific AC power cord or no AC power cord (only the power adapter). Product codes Power cord type BNUC11ATKPE000 No power cord included. An AC power cord needs to be purchased separately. Power cords are available at many Internet sites for use in multiple countries.
