Installations
This chapter provides information on how to use the jumpers and connectors
on the NuPRO-590 in order to set up a workable system. The topics covered
are:
•CPU Installation
•Memory Installation
•Jumpers on the NuPRO-590
•Connectors on the NuPRO-590
•Watchdog timer configration
2.1 CPU Installation
The NuPRO-590 Industrial CPU Board supports a Socket7 processor socket
for Intel Pentium MMX, Low power Pentium, AMD K6 and Cyrix MII
processors.
The Socket7 connector comes with a lever to secure the processor. Before
inserting the CPU, make sure the lever is raised perpendicular to the socket
and the notch on the corner of the CPU corresponds with the notch on the
inside of the socket.
After you have installed and lock the processor into place, check if the
jumpers for the CPU type and speed are correct.
Note: Ensure that the CPU heat sink and the CPU top surface are in total
contact to avoid CPU overheating problem that would cause your
system to hang or be unstable.

2.2 Memory Installation
The NuPRO-590 Industrial CPU Board supports two 168-pin DIMM sockets
for a maximum total memory of 256 SDRAMs. The memory modules can
come in sizes of 16MB, 32MB, 64MB, 128MB SDRAM.
2.3 Jumpers on the NuPRO-590
The jumpers on the NuPRO-590 allow you to configure your CPU board
accordingtotheneedsofyourapplications.Ifyouhavedoubtsaboutthebest
jumper configuration for your needs, contact your dealer or sales
representative. The following table lists the jumpers and dipswitches on
