I NSTALLATIONS
Carefully follow the steps below in order to install the CPU:
1. Check and confirm that the jumpers are correctly set for the CPU you are going to install (figure 3).
2. Lift the releasing lever of the Socket 478.
3. Align the pins of the CPU against the pinholes of the Socket 478. Be sure to pay attention to the orientation of the CPU.
Figure 3: CPU Socket
4. Push down the CPU into the Socket 478.
5. Push down the release lever and lock it against the key hook.
6. Hook the hole in ZIF clip for the CPU cooling fan onto the notch on the socket 478.
7. Place the CPU cooling fan atop the CPU surface.
8. Push down the opposite side of the ZIF clip and hook it.
9. Slide the head of the clip to left and lock it.
10. Connect the cooling fan cable to the socket as shown below. Be careful not to place the cable on the CPU cooling fan.

Installations
Removing a CPU:
1. Before removing the CPU, turn off the NuPRO-841 Series power; then wait for about 3 minutes until the heat radiation plate of the cooling fan and the CPU cool down.
2. To remove the CPU, lift the releasing lever of the Socket 478.
Note: The CPU and the heat radiation plate are hot. They may cause
burns.
To remove the CPU, reverse the installation steps.
2.1.2 Heat Sink & Retention Module Installation
It is highly recommended that only NuPRO-841 Heat Sink + Fan (Figure 4), designed for use in the chassis be used -- the use of other heat sinks, including those boxed with CPUs, may result in damage to the NuPRO-841
SBC.
Make sure that good contact is made between the processors and the heat sinks. Insufficient contact, incorrect types of heat sinks, fans, or thermal compound used or improper amount of thermal compound applied on the
CPU die can cause the processors to overheat, which may crash the system.
The Retention Module can prevent the board to crooked, so user must add the Retention Module to hold up the weight of Heat Sink & Fan.

2.1.3 Memory Module Installation
Figure 5 display the notch marks and what they should look like on your
DIMM memory module.
DIMMs have184-pins and two notches, that will match with the onboard
DIMM socket. DIMM modules are installed by placing the chip firmly into the socket at a 90-degree angle and pressing straight down (figure 6) until it fits tightly into the DIMM socket.
Figure 5: DIMM Memory and 184-pins Socket
Figure 6: Memory Installation
Carefully follow the steps below in order to install the DIMMs:
1. To avoid generating static electricity and damaging the DIMM, ground yourself by touching a grounded metal surface or using a ground scrap before you touch the DIMM.
2. Do not touch the connector of the DIMM. Dirt residue may cause a malfunction.
3. Hold the DIMM with its notch to the front side of the NuPRO-841 Series and insert it completely into the socket. A DIMM should be inserted into the inner socket first. Guiding the hole at each end of the DIMM over the retaining post at each end of the DIMM socket.
4. If you install two DIMMs, install the second DIMM using the same procedure as above.
10
Installations
5. If DIMM does not go in smoothly, do not force it. Pull it all the way out and try again.
6. Make sure the DIMM is properly installed and locked by the tabs on both sides of the socket.
Removing a DIMM:
To remove the DIMM, use your fingers or a small screwdriver to carefully push away the plastic tabs that secure the DIMM at each end. Lift it out of the socket.
Make sure you store the DIMM in an anti-static bag and must be populated the same size and manufactory of memory modules. .
2.1.4 Setting Jumpers and DIP Switches
There are jumpers and DIP-switches on the system board of the
NuPRO-841 Series. You can set the jumpers to make the necessary operations.
Figure 7: Jumper Connector
For any three-pins jumpers (Figure 7), the jumper setting is 1-2 when the jumper connects pin 1 and 2. The setting is 2-3 when pin 2 and 3 are connected and so on. You see a number “ 1 “ and a “ 3 “ printed on the circuit board to identify these pins. And also, there is a second way of indication – one of the lines surrounding jumpers is thick, which indicates pin
NO.1.
To move a jumper from one position to another, use needle-nose pliers or tweezers to pull the pin cap off the pin and move it to the desired position.

A WARD BIOS S ETUP
Award’s ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program, which allows user to modify the basic system configuration and hardware parameters. The modified data will be stored in a battery-backed CMOS, so that data will be retained even when the power is turned off. In general, the information saved in the CMOS RAM will stay unchanged unless there is a configuration change in the system, such as hard drive replacement or a device is added.
It is possible for the CMOS battery to fail, this will cause data loss in the
CMOS only. If this does happen you will need to reconfigure your BIOS settings.

3.6 Advanced Chipset Features
This section allows you to configure the system based on the specific features of the installed chipset. This chipset manages bus speeds and access to system memory resources, such as DRAM and the external cache. It also coordinates communications between the conventional ISA bus and the PCI bus. It must be stated that these items should never need to be altered. The default settings have been chosen because they provide the best operating conditions for your system. The only time you might consider making any changes would be if you discovered that data was being lost while using your system.

3.14 Supervisor/User Password Setting
You can set either supervisor or user password, or both of then. The differences between are:
Set Supervisor Password: can enter and change the options of the setup menus.
Set User Password: just can only enter but do not have the right to change the options of the setup menus. When you select this function, the following message will appear at the center of the screen to assist you in creating a password.
ENTER PASSWORD:
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>.
The password typed now will clear any previously entered password from
CMOS memory. You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press <Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection and not enter a password.
To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the password. A message will confirm the password will be disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED.
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of your system configuration.
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS to request a password every time your system is rebooted. This would prevent unauthorized use of your computer.
You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features
Setup Menu and its Security option (see Section 3). If the Security option is set to “System”, the password will be required both at boot and at entry to
Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when trying to enter Setup.

Save & Exit Setup
Pressing <Enter> on this item asks for confirmation:
Save to CMOS and EXIT (Y/N)? Y
Pressing “Y” stores the selections made in the menus in CMOS – a special section of memory that stays on after you turn your system off. The next time you boot your computer, the BIOS configures your system according to the Setup selections stored in CMOS. After saving the values the system is restarted again.
Exit Without Saving
Pressing <Enter> on this item asks for confirmation:
Quit without saving (Y/N)? Y
This allows you to exit Setup without storing in CMOS any change. The previous selections remain in effect. This exits the Setup utility and restarts your computer.
