1.1 Introduction
Conceived as a powerful rackmount Internet Security platform, the FWA-3180 was
specifically designed for Internet secure connectivity. Designed with the Intel®
Pentium® 4 processor, it provides high performance and meets the requirements of
Internet security appliances. The system supports Compact Flash for OS and
Internet security applications. This avoids service disruption caused by hard disk
mechanical / magnetic failures. In addition, the FWA-3180 can support system
memory up to 2 GB DDR memory. Both Compact Flash and memory can be
accessed and replaced for software upgrades through an easily removable cover.

10/100/1000 Mbps auto-sensing LAN ports in the front panel. There are two LED
Indicators which monitor power and HDD activities. For easy access, the front panel
has a 9-pin, RS-232 serial port for local system management, maintenance and
diagnostics. The FWA-3180 provides optional 3.5” IDE HDD and one PCI slot. It is
FCC and CE compliant. Please see the FWA-3180 user manual for more details.

2.2 Installing Central Processing Unit (CPU)
1. Locate the 478-pin CPU ZIF socket on the motherboard. And pull the Socket
actuation lever to the 90-degree directly.
2. Position the CPU above the socket that its marked corner (golden cut edge on
the CPU upper corner) matches the base of the socket lever. Insert the CPU into
the socket. (Do not force the CPU into the socket.) Then push down the socket
lever to secure the CPU.
3. Apply the thermal tape to provide better heat conduction between your CPU and
cooling fan. Position the cooling fan on top of the CPU. Align and snap the four
hooks of the retention mechanism to the holes on each corner of the module
base.
4. Make sure the CPU fan power connector is plugged to the motherboard fan
power connector, than installing CPU is completed.
