NANO-GX User Manual Step 1: Locate the SODIMM socket. Place the NANO-GX on an anti-static pad with the solder side facing up. Step 2: Align the SODIMM with the socket. The SODIMM must be oriented in such a way that the notch in the middle of the SODIMM must be aligned with the plastic bridge in the socket. Step 3: Insert the SODIMM. Push the SODIMM chip into the socket at an angle. (See Figure 4-1) Step 4: Open the SODIMM socket arms.
NANO-GX User Manual Figure 4-2: CF Card Installation 4.3 Jumper Settings NOTE: A jumper is a metal bridge that is used to close an electrical circuit. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To CLOSE/SHORT a jumper means connecting the pins of the jumper with Jumper the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper means removing the plastic clip from a jumper.
