KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard 5.1 Anti-static Precautions WARNING: Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the KINO-9453 may result in permanent damage to the KINO-9453 and severe injury to the user. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the KINO-9453. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard 5.2 Installation Considerations NOTE: The following installation notices and installation considerations should be read and understood before the KINO-9453 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of the KINO-9453 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the KINO-9453 and injury to the person installing the motherboard. 5.2.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard o When working with the KINO-9453, make sure that it is disconnected from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system. Before and during the installation of the KINO-9453 DO NOT: Remove any of the stickers on the PCB board. These stickers are required for warranty validation. Use the product before verifying all the cables and power connectors are properly connected.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard o o o Keyboard Mouse RS-232 serial communications device 5.3 CPU, CPU Cooling Kit and DIMM Installation WARNING: A CPU should never be turned on without the specified cooling kit being installed. If the cooling kit (heat sink and fan) is not properly installed and the system turned on, permanent damage to the CPU, KINO-9453 and other electronic components attached to the system may be incurred. Running a CPU without a cooling kit may also result in injury to the user.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard WARNING: When handling the CPU, only hold it on the sides. DO NOT touch the pins at the bottom of the CPU. Step 1: Unlock the CPU retention screw. When shipped, the retention screw of the CPU socket should be in the unlocked position. If it is not in the unlocked position, use a screwdriver to unlock the screw. See Figure 5-1. Figure 5-1: Make sure the CPU socket retention screw is unlocked Step 2: Inspect the CPU socket.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 5: Align the CPU pins. Carefully align the CPU pins with the holes in the CPU socket. Step 6: Insert the CPU. Gently insert the CPU into the socket. If the CPU pins are properly aligned, the CPU should slide into the CPU socket smoothly. Step 7: Lock the retention screw. Rotate the retention screw into the locked position. See Figure 5-2.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard 5.3.2 Cooling Kit CF-479B-RS Installation Figure 5-3: IEI CF-479B-RS Cooling Kit An IEI Socket 479 CPU cooling kit can be purchased separately. The cooling kit comprises a CPU heat sink and a cooling fan. WARNING: Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of thermal paste on the bottom of the CF-479B-RS heat sink. The thermal paste between the CPU and the heat sink is important for optimum heat dissipation.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Figure 5-4: Cooling Kit Support Bracket Step 4: Tighten the screws. Use a screwdriver to tighten the four screws. Tighten each nut a few turns at a time and do not over-tighten the screws. Step 5: Connect the fan cable. Connect the cooling kit fan cable to the fan connector on the motherboard. Carefully route the cable and avoid heat generating chips and fan blades. See Figure 5-5.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard 5.3.3 DIMM Installation WARNING: Only DDR2 memory module can be installed on the KINO-9453. Do not install DDR memory modules. If a DDR memory module is installed on the KINO-9453, the KINO-9453 may be irreparably damaged. Please make sure the purchased DIMM complies with the memory specifications of the KINO-9453. DIMM specifications compliant with the KINO-9453 are listed in Chapter 2.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Step 2: Align the DIMM with the socket.

KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard Appendix B B DIO Interface Page 171
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard B.1 DIO Interface Introduction The DIO connector on the KINO-9453 is interfaced to GIO ports on the iTE Super I/O chipset. The DIO has both 4-bit digital inputs and 4-bit digital outputs. The digital inputs and digital outputs are generally control signals that control the on/off circuit of external devices or TTL devices. Data can be read or written to the selected address to enable the DIO functions.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard B.3 Assembly Language Samples B.3.1 Enable the DIO Input Function The BIOS interrupt call INT 15H controls the digital I/O. An assembly program to enable digital I/O input functions is listed below. MOV AX, 6F08H Sets the digital port as input INT 15H Initiates the INT 15H BIOS call B.3.2 Enable the DIO Output Function The BIOS interrupt call INT 15H controls the digital I/O. An assembly program to enable digital I/O output functions is listed below.

KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard NOTE: The following discussion applies to DOS environment. IEI support is contacted or the IEI website visited for specific drivers for more sophisticated operating systems, e.g., Windows and Linux. The Watchdog Timer is provided to ensure that standalone systems can always recover from catastrophic conditions that cause the CPU to crash. This condition may have occurred by external EMI or a software bug.
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard NOTE: When exiting a program it is necessary to disable the Watchdog Timer, otherwise the system resets.
