PICO-KBU4-SEMI Quick Installation Guide
Install Guide Steps
Step 1: On the heatsink, remove the two plastic coverings as shown.
Step 2: Place the top chassis onto the heatsink. Note the orientation of the chassis with the heatsink. Secure
with four black screws.
Step 3: On the PICO-APL1 board, remove the nut and washer from the power input port.
Step 4: On the processor side of the PICO-APL1 board,
install the memory RAM module. Insert at an angle
(~30°) and then gently press down until it is secured
in place.
Step 5: To install m.2 storage module, remove the
securing screw.
Step 6: Insert the m.2 module at an angle (~30°). Press down gently and secure with screw.

Step 10: Peel the backing off of the tape on the CMOS battery. Gently press the battery onto the
PICO-APL1 board to secure it.
Step 11: Attach the bottom chassis by first lining up the right side, then swivel the chassis into place.
NOTE: the bottom chassis does not slide directly on, it must swivel into place as shown in the figure.
Step 12: Ensure the bottom chassis is properly lined up and attached. Use black screws to secure, two
screws on the bottom and one screw on the left and right sides of the chassis.
Step 9: Thread the power button cable through the hole for the power button. Plug the cable into the front panel
connector (CN3 in user manual). NOTE: The white dot indicates PIN 1 connector, make sure the connector is
properly aligned. Next, gently push the power button in until it is secure (you will hear a ‘snap’). Be careful not to
tangle the power button cable with the CMOS battery cable.
Step 7: Insert the PICO-APL1 board into the
chassis assembly with the processor side toward
the heatsink. DO NOT place the CMOS battery
between the board and heatsink.
Step 8: Check that the I/O ports are properly
aligned. Secure board with four nickel screws.
