hInstalling Module Board onto Carrier Board
Important
The illustrations are provided to guide users on how to install the module board
onto the carrier board of their choice and should be held for reference only.
1. Locate the threaded stando󰀨s on the carrier board.
2. Locate the MXM slot on the carrier board and insert the edge ngers of
the module board into the slot at a 45-degree angle.
