CPU installing and upgrading

You can upgrade to a more powerful Celeron CPU at any time. Simply remove the old CPU, install the new one, and set the jumpers for the new CPU speed.

Warning! Always disconnect the power cord from your chassis when you are working on it. Do not make connections while the power is on as

sensitive electronic components can be dam- aged by the sudden rush of power. Only experi- enced electronics personnel should open the system chassis.

Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the system board.

Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipative surface or in a static- shielded bag when they are not in the chassis.

Install a CPU in the FC-370 socket

SBC-658 Series provides a Flip-Chip (FC) socket for easy CPU installation.

1.Make sure the FC-370 socket lever is in the upright position. To raise the lever, pull it out to the side a little and raise it as far as it will go.

2.Place the CPU in the empty socket. Follow the instructions that came wth the CPU. If you have no instructions, do the follow- ing: Carefully align the CPU so it is parallel to the socket and the notch on the corner of the CPU corresponds with the notch on the inside of the socket. Gently slide the CPU in. It should insert easily. If it doesn't, pull the lever up a little more.
