IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard 4.1 Anti-static Precautions WARNING: Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the IMBA-H610 may result in permanent damage to the IMBA-H610 and severe injury to the user. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the IMBA-H610. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.
IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard WARNING: The installation instructions described in this manual should be carefully followed in order to prevent damage to the components and injury to the user. Before and during the installation please DO the following: Read the user manual: o The user manual provides a complete description of the IMBA-H610 installation instructions and configuration options. Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD): o Electronic components are easily damaged by ESD.
IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard 4.2.1 Socket LGA1155 CPU Installation WARNING: CPUs are expensive and sensitive components. When installing the CPU please be careful not to damage it in anyway. Make sure the CPU is installed properly and ensure the correct cooling kit is properly installed. DO NOT touch the pins at the bottom of the CPU. When handling the CPU, only hold it on the sides. To install the CPU, follow the steps below.
IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard Figure 4-2: Remove Protective Cover Step 3: Inspect the CPU socket. Make sure there are no bent pins and make sure the socket contacts are free of foreign material. If any debris is found, remove it with compressed air. Step 4: Orientate the CPU properly. The contact array should be facing the CPU socket. Step 5: Correctly position the CPU. Match the Pin 1 mark with the cut edge on the CPU socket. Step 6: Align the CPU pins. Locate pin 1 and the two orientation notches on the CPU.
IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard Figure 4-3: Insert the Socket LGA1155 CPU Step 8: Close the CPU socket. Close the load plate and pull the load lever back a little to have the load plate be able to secure to the knob. Engage the load lever by pushing it back to its original position (Figure 4-4). There will be some resistance, but will not require extreme pressure. Figure 4-4: Close the Socket LGA1155 Step 9: Connect the 12 V power to the board. Connect the 12 V power from the power supply to the board.
IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard 4.2.2 Socket LGA1155 Cooling Kit Installation WARNING: DO NOT attempt to install a push-pin cooling fan. The pre-installed support bracket prevents the board from bending and is ONLY compatible with captive screw type cooling fans. The cooling kit can be bought from IEI. The cooling kit has a heatsink and fan. WARNING: Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of thermal paste on the bottom of the heat sink.
IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard Figure 4-5: Cooling Kit Support Bracket Step 2: Place the cooling kit onto the socket LGA1155 CPU. Make sure the CPU cable can be properly routed when the cooling kit is installed. Step 3: Mount the cooling kit. Gently place the cooling kit on top of the CPU. Make sure the four threaded screws on the corners of the cooling kit properly pass through the holes of the cooling kit bracket. Step 4: Secure the cooling kit by fastening the four retention screws of the cooling kit.
IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard 4.2.3 DIMM Installation To install a DIMM, please follow the steps below and refer to Figure 4-6. Figure 4-6: DIMM Installation Step 1: Open the DIMM socket handles. Open the two handles outwards as far as they can. See Figure 4-6. Step 2: Align the DIMM with the socket. Align the DIMM so the notch on the memory lines up with the notch on the memory socket. See Figure 4-6. Step 3: Insert the DIMM. Once aligned, press down until the DIMM is properly seated.
IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard 4.3 Jumper Settings NOTE: A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electrical circuit. It consists of two or three metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To CLOSE/SHORT a jumper means connecting the pins of the jumper with the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper means removing the plastic clip from a jumper. The hardware jumpers must be set before installation. Jumpers are shown in Table 4-1.
IMBA-H610 ATX Motherboard The AT/ATX Power Select jumper specifies the systems power mode as AT or ATX. Setting Description Closed ATX power (Default) Open AT power Table 4-2: AT/ATX Power Mode Jumper Settings Figure 4-7: AT/ATX Power Mode Jumper Location 4.3.
