CHAPTER System Setup 9 2
Chapter 2 System Setup The following procedures are provided to assist you in installing a motherboard (or backplane), disk drives, and plug-in cards into the ACP-4320. Please also refer to the Appendix A, Exploded Diagram, for the parts naming in this manual. 2.1 System installation To remove the cover of the ACP-4320, please refer to Figure 2.1. Figure 2.
2.2 Installing motherboard The ACP-4320MB accepts both an ATX and a microATX motherboard. To install a motherboard, please proceed as follows: 1. Remove the two screws, which mount the hold-down clamp to the ACP-4320MB chassis, then take out the hold-down clamp. 2. Find the yellow label (shown as Table 2.1) on the upperplate of the ACP-4320MB chassis. This label instructs where to screw the copper stubs on the upperplate, based on the to-be-installed backplane and motherboard.
5. Refer to Figure 2.2, place the motherboard into the chassis, and fix it with screws. 6. Plug in the 20- or 24-pin ATX power connector and +12 V power connector from the power supply. 7. Connect the wires for the POWER switch, RESET switch, and the front USB from the motherboard to the front panel of the chassis. 8. Connect the wires for the POWER LED, HDD LED and LAN LED from the motherboard to the small LED board, which is attached to the front panel of the chassis.
2.3 Installing passive backplane & CPU card The ACP-4320BP accepts an up to 15-slot backplane. To install a backplane and a CPU card, proceed as follows: 2.3.1 Installing the backplane 1. Remove the two screws, which mount the hold-down clamp to the ACP-4320BP chassis, then take out the hold-down clamp. 2. Find the yellow label (shown as Table 2.1) on the upperplate of the ACP-4320BP chassis.
2.3.2 Installing the CPU card 1. Before installing the CPU card, check all devices, such as CPU, CPU cooler and RAMs and make sure they have been installed on the CPU card properly. 2. Carefully insert the CPU card in a PICMG slot. Make sure that the card bracket has been inserted properly and the other edge of the card has been fixed in the guiding rail. Fasten the card at the top of the bracket with a screw. 3.
Note: Most of Advantech's full-sized CPU cards support the front USB function. However, only the PCA-6184-B, PCA-6186-B, PCA6188, PCA-6190 and the later full-sized CPU cards support the front LAN LED function. 2.4 Installing plug-in cards To install a plug-in card, please proceed as follows: 1. Find the slot(s) which is go to be inserted a card(s), and remove the slot's blank bracket(s) attached to the rear plate of the chassis. 2. Insert a plug-in card.
2.5 Installing disk drives The ACP-4320 comes with two front-accessible SATA HDD trays; it also accepts two 5.25" disk drives and one 3.5"flppy disk drive or an internal SATA/ATA hard disk drive. Note: For the first time to install all disk drives together into the ACP-4320 chassis, we suggest users to install the two 5.25" disk drives (refer to Section 2.5.1) first, then the 3.5" floppy disk drive (refer to Section 2.5.2) or internal 3.5" hard disk drive (refer to Section 2.5.
