PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 4.1 Anti-static Precautions WARNING: Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the PCIE-Q670 Series may result in permanent damage to the PCIE-Q670 Series and severe injury to the user. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the PCIE-Q670 Series. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.
PAGE 59
PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 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 PCIE-Q670 Series installation instructions and configuration options. Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD): o Electronic components are easily damaged by ESD.
PAGE 60
PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 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.
PAGE 61
PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 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.
PAGE 62
PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 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.
PAGE 63
PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 4.2.2 Socket LGA1155 Cooling Kit Installation 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. The thermal paste between the CPU and the heat sink is important for optimum heat dissipation. To install the cooling kit, follow the instructions below.
PAGE 64
PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 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. Step 5: Connect the fan cable. Connect the cooling kit fan cable to the fan connector on the PCIE-Q670 Series. Carefully route the cable and avoid heat generating chips and fan blades.

PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card Step 4: Removing a DIMM. To remove a DIMM, push both handles outward. The memory module is ejected by a mechanism in the socket. 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.

PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card 4.4 Chassis Installation 4.4.1 Airflow WARNING: Airflow is critical to the cooling of the CPU and other onboard components. The chassis in which the PCIE-Q670 Series must have air vents to allow cool air to move into the system and hot air to move out. The PCIE-Q670 Series must be installed in a chassis with ventilation holes on the sides allowing airflow to travel through the heat sink surface.
PAGE 69
PCIE-Q670 PICMG 1.3 CPU Card Step 2: Insert the cable connectors. Insert one connector into each serial port box headers (Figure 4-10). A key on the front of the cable connectors ensures the connector can only be installed in one direction. Figure 4-10: Dual RS-232 Cable Installation Step 3: Secure the bracket. The dual RS-232 connector has two D-sub 9 male connectors secured on a bracket. To secure the bracket to the chassis please refer to the reference material that came with the chassis. 4.5.
