2 HARDWARE INSTALLATION
This chapter explains how to configure the system mainboard hardware. After
you install the main board, you can set jumpers and make case connections.
Refer to this chapter whenever you upgrade or reconfigure your system.
2.1 Unpacking
The mainboard package should contain the following:
♦The R-558 mainboard.
♦USER'S MANUAL for R-558 mainboard.
♦Cable set for IDE, Floppy , I/O device and VGA.
♦IDE Driver and VGA Driver CD-ROM (optional)
The mainboard contains sensitive electric components which can be easily
damaged by static electricity, so the mainboard should be left in its original
packing until it is installed.
Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat.
The operator should be wearing an anti static wristband, grounded at the
same point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the mainboard carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling
may cause damage to your board. Be sure there are no shipping and
handling damages on the board before proceeding.
After opening the mainboard carton, extract the system board and place it
only on a grounded anti-static surface component side up. Again inspect the
board for damage.
Press down on all of the socket IC's to make sure that they are properly
seated. Do this only on with the board placed on a firm flat surface.

】__________________________________
Do not apply power to the board if it has been damaged.
You are now ready to install your mainboard. the mounting hole pattern on
the mainboard matches the system board.
It is assumed that the chassis is designed for a standard AT mainboard
mounting. Place the chassis on the anti-static mat and remove the cover.
Take the plastic clips, Nylon stand-off and screws for mounting the system
board, and keep them separate
2.2 Jumper Setting Summary
Regarding hardware settings on the board. They specify configuration options
for various features. The settings are made using something called a
"Jumper". A jumper is a set of two or more metal pins in a plastic base
attached to the mainboard. A plastic jumper "cap" with a metal plate inside
fits over two pins to create an electrical contact between them. The contact
establishes a hardware setting.
Some jumpers have two pins, other have three or more. The jumper are
sometimes combined into sets called jumper "blocks", where all the jumpers
in the block must be set together to establish a hardware setting.
The next figures show how this locks.

Most jumper setting are printed on the board in a stylized bird's-eye view,
with which pins to connect for each setting marked by a bar connecting two
pins. For example, if a jumper has three pins, connecting or "closing",
the first and second pins creates one setting and closing the second and
third pins creates another. The same type of diagrams are used in this
manual. The jumpers are always shown from the same point of view as
shown in the whole board diagram in this chapter.
