This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
wThis device may not cause harmful interference
wThis device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy. If this equipment is not installed and
used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, it may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
wReorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
wIncrease the separation between the equipment and receiver.
wConnect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
wConsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The use of shielded cables for connection of the monitor to the graphics card is required to
assure compliance with FCC regulations. Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate
this equipment.

1. Pull the lever sidways away from the socket, and then raise the lever up
to a 90-degree angle.
2. Take note of the red circle as below picture. When insert the CPU into
socket, you can find out there is a definite pin orientation for CPU and
socket.

2-3 SYSTEM MEMORY CONFIGURATION
• This VIA 693 Apollo Pro Plus motherboard supports 168pin DIMM of 4MB,
8MB, 16MB, 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, and 256MB to form a memory size
between 8MB up to 768MB (SDRAM). VIA 693 Apollo Pro Plus chipset
provides “Table-Free” function. It means that users can install DRAM with
any configuration and in any bank, and that is why the DRAM table is not
needed but do remember that the DRAM must be 3.3V type. For 100 /
133MHz CPU environment, the SDRAM specific tion must comply with
PC-100 / PC-133 spec.
2-4 JUMPER DEFINITIONS
• The figure below shows the location of the motherboard’s jumper blocks.
CAUTION
• Do not move the jumper with the power on. Always turn off the power and unplug
the power cord from the computer before changing the jumper. Otherwise, the
motherboard could be damaged.
GND
+12V
SENSOR
Those connectors support processor/system/chassis cooling fan with +12V. Those
support three pin head connector. When connecting the wire to FAN connectors
user should give attention that the red wire is the positive and should be connected
to the +12V the black wire is Ground and should be connected to GND. If your
motherboard has Hardware Monitor chipset on-board you must use a specially
designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of this function.
For fans with fan speed sensor every rotation of the fan will send out 2 pulses.
System Hardware Monitor will count and report the fan rotation speed.
NOTE 1: Always consult vendor for proper CPU cooling fan.
NOTE 2: CPU FAN supports the FAN control. You can install PC
Alert utility. This will automatically control the CPU
FAN speed according to the actual CPU temperature.
