Hardware Setup SG-80DC 2-1 2. Hardware Setup In this chapter we will elaborate all the information you need upon installing this motherboard to your computer system. ※ Always power off the computer and unplug the AC power cord before adding or removing any peripheral or component.
To install this motherboard: 1. Locate all the screw holes on the motherboard and the chassis base. 2. Place all the studs or spacers needed on the chassis base and have them tightened. 3. Face the motherboard’s I/O ports toward the chassis’s rear panel.
Hardware Setup SG-80DC 2-3 2.3.1 CMOS Memory Clearing Header and Backup Battery The time to clear the CMOS memory occurs when (a) the CMOS data becomes corrupted, (b) you forgot the supervisor or user password preset in the BIOS menu, (c) you are unable to boot-up the system because the CPU ratio/clock was incorrectly set in the BIOS menu.
CMOS Backup Battery: An onboard battery saves the CMOS memory to keep the BIOS information stays on even after disconnected your system with power source.
Hardware Setup SG-80DC 2-5 2.4 Connecting Chassis Components 2.4.1 ATX Power Connectors These connectors provide the connection from an ATX power supply. As the plugs from the power supply fit in only one orientation, find the correct one and push firmly down into these connectors.
2.4.3 Front Panel Switches & Indicators Headers This header is used for connecting switches and LED indicators on the chassis front panel. Watch the power LED pin position and orientation. The mark “+” align to the pin in the figure below stands for positive polarity for the LED conn ection.
