1. Warranty does not cover damages or failures that are raised from misuse of the product, inability to use the
product, unauthorized replacement or alteration of components and product specifications.
2. The warranty is void if the product has been subject to physical abuse, improper installation, modification,
accidents or unauthorized repair of the product.
3. Unless otherwise instructed in this user’s manual, the user may not, under any circumstances, attempt to
perform service, adjustments or repairs on the product, whether in or out of warranty. It must be returned
to the purchase point, factory or authorized service agency for all such work.
4. We will not be liable for any indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages to the product that has
been modified or altered.
It is quite easy to inadvertently damage your PC, system board, components or devices even before installing
them in your system unit. Static electrical discharge can damage computer components without causing any
signs of physical damage. You must take extra care in handling them to ensure against electrostatic build-up.
1. To prevent electrostatic build-up, leave the system board in its anti-static bag until you are ready to install
it.
2. Wear an antistatic wrist strap.
3. Do all preparation work on a static-free surface.
4. Hold the device only by its edges. Be careful not to touch any of the components, contacts or connections.
5. Avoid touching the pins or contacts on all modules and connectors. Hold modules or connectors by their
ends.
Important:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drive and other
components. Perform the upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD
workstation only. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection
by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the system chassis.
If a wrist strap is unavailable, establish and maintain contact with the system chassis
throughout any procedures requiring ESD protection.

Static Electricity Precautions

4
To avoid damage to the system:
• Use the correct AC input voltage range.
To reduce the risk of electric shock:
• Unplug the power cord before removing the system chassis cover for installation or servicing. After installation
or servicing, cover the system chassis before plugging the power cord.
Battery:
• Danger of explosion if battery incorrectly replaced.
• Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommend by the manufacturer.
• Dispose of used batteries according to local ordinance.
Before using the system, prepare basic system components.
If the system comes as a barebone; that is, none of the key components, including processor, memory, and hard
drive has been pre-installed as part of your purchase, you will need to at least ensure a compatible counterpart
is located and installed.
You will also need a few external system peripherals intended for the use of the system, a common pool with
at least a keyboard, a mouse, and a monitor is thus suggested.

Preparation

13
A stable and clean working environment are essential. Dust and dirt can get into components and cause a
malfunction. Use containers to keep small components separated.
Adequate lighting and proper tools can prevent you from accidentally damaging the internal components. Most
of the procedures that follow require only a few simple tools, including the following:
A Philips screwdriver
A flat-tipped screwdriver
A set of jewelers Screwdrivers
A grounding strap
An anti-static pad
Using your fingers can disconnect most of the connections. It is recommended that you do not use needle-nosed
pliers to disconnect connections as these can damage the soft metal or plastic parts of the connectors.
Before working on internal components, make sure that the power is off. Ground yourself before touching any
internal components, by touching a metal object. Static electricity can damage many of the electronic
components. Humid environment tend to have less static electricity than dry environments. A grounding strap is
warranted whenever danger of static electricity exists.
Computer components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by discharges of static electricity. Working
on the computers that are still connected to a power supply can be extremely dangerous. Follow the guidelines
below to avoid damage to your computer or yourself:
Always disconnect the unit from the power outlet whenever you are working inside the case.
If possible, wear a grounded wrist strap when you are working inside the computer case. Alternatively,
discharge any static electricity by touching the bare metal chassis of the unit case, or the bare metal body
of any other grounded appliance.
Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Never touch the components on the board unless it is
necessary to do so. Do not flex or stress the circuit board.
Leave all components inside the static-proof packaging that they shipped with until they are ready for
installation.
Use correct screws and do not over tighten screws.
2.1 Before You Begin

14
This is the first step of all to proceed with, if you are to install (or change) a hard drive, a memory module, or a
wireless module, etc. It is not necessary to open up the bottom cover if it is to add/remove/swap a CFast card,
as another rear accessible cover has been designed for this purpose. Please refer to the CFast section for details.
(1) Please shut down the unit, remove the power cable, and place the unit on a clean surface, upside down.
(2) Remove the 4 screws as indicated in the places below.
(3) Securing the screws is essential for they would be re-used for the restoration of the top cover, after all preparation
procedures are completed.

15
Please locate the DDR3 SODIMM slot as indicated below.
To install SO-DIMM
1. Make sure the “Key”on Memory module and SO-DIMM slot are perfectly matched, and add slowly the RAM
module into the SO-DIMM slot.
2. Push the RAM module downwards to seat it firmly. Make sure the RAM module is snapped perfectly by the
slot, and the two handles are restored back to “close”position automatically. If not, press the handles to
“close”position.
3. To remove the Memory module, please push the handles outwards, and the memory module will be
automatically disengaged.

16
Procedures:
(1) Please locate the 2.5” Drive Bay on the bottom cover as indicated below, and add the 2.5” Drive. Note the I/O
side of the hard needs to be on the side away from the cover edge to reserve space for adding cables later on.
(2) Flip over the cover and find the four screw holes, find the four hard drive screws enclosed in the accessary bag,
and add them to secure the 2.5” drive on the bottom cover.
(3) Find the 2.5” drive cable from the enclosed accessory bag, and attach this cable to the drive itself and also the
SATA Connector (CN6) and SATA Power Connector (J4) on the embedded board.
(4) Add SATA signal cable and SATA power cable to complete the work.

CFast instead of CompactFlash
As stated above, significant differences of CompactFlash and CFast are literally defined by their respective
interfaces, though the very resemblances can merely be indistinctly differentiated.
Perfect Solution for Data Drive
CFast card runs on SATA interface, exactly the same way as any SATA device, only it comes with smaller form
factor and is a pure flash device with no spindle at all, boasting outstanding stability and SATA performance.
The friendly access from the rear side, with no need to open up the bottom cover, has undoubtedly made it a
perfect solution as SATA data drive.
Procedures:
(1) Turn off the system, and find the CFast socket at the front panel.
(2) Remove the two screws that hold the cover plate.
(3) Add or replace the CFast card.
(4) Restore the cover plate and resume the screws back to their positions.
Please always power off the system before adding or removing CFast card.
2.6 Accessing CFast Card

18
To add Wireless Module
(1) Please locate the miniPCIe Slot on the embedded board.
(2) Add Wireless module onto the slot, ensuring that the golden finger goes into the slot first.
(3) Push the module down and secure the module with two screws.
2.7 Installing Wireless Module & Antenna

19
To add Wireless Antenna
(1) Find the two antenna cut-out with protection covers.
(2) Remove the two covers.
(3) Put through the two antenna jacks.
(4) Add one washer (ring) on each jack.
(5) Attach the other end of the antenna onto Wireless module.
(6) Connector external antenna onto antenna jack.

20
(1) Slide to move the SIM card holder to open position, and lift up the top cover.
(2) Manage to also slide the SIM card into the top cover.
(3) Push down the top cover and slide to move the SIM card holder back to close position.
