21 2 Basic installation 11

22 INSTALLING THE MEMORY Step 1 Locate memory access cover on the bottom of the AMOS-3001 and remove the two screws as indicated in the figure below. Step 2 Remove the memory access cover. 12

23 Step 3 Insert the memory module into the SODIMM socket at the 45 degree angle. Then push down until the memory module snaps into place. The SODIMM socket has two locking mechanisms that will click once the memory module has been fully inserted. Step 4 Peel the protective layers off of the memory thermal pad. Then apply the thermal pad on the memory module. 13

24 Step 5 Reinstall the memory access cover. Secure the memory access cover in place with the two screws. 14

25 INSTALLING THE IDE FLASH DOM Step 1 Locate the IDE Flash DOM access cover on the side of the AMOS and remove the two screws as indicated in the figure below. Step 2 Remove the IDE Flash DOM access cover. 15

26 Step 3 Pin 1 of the IDE Flash DOM connector is on the left side of the DOM access port. Ensure that the pins are correctly aligned with the IDE Flash DOM before attempting to insert the IDE Flash DOM. Step 4 Insert the IDE Flash DOM into the DOM access port. Ensure that pin 1 is on the correct side before inserting. Step 5 Replace the DOM access cover. Secure the DOM access cover with the two screws. 16

27 PREPARING CABLES AND CONNECTORS Opening the Chassis Step 1 Remove the four corner screws from the bottom of the AMOS Step 2 Flip over the chassis and unscrew the four chassis screws from both face plates including the screws of VGA port and HDMI port on rear plate. 17

28 Step 3 Then pull the rear face plate and gently slide the top cover backward and lift off the top cover. 18

29 Connecting the DIO Cable Step 1 Locate the DIO pin header onto the EPIA-P720 mainboard. Step 2 Then insert the DIO cable connector onto the pin header. 19

30 Connecting the Audio Cable Step 1 Locate the audio pin header on the P720-B daughterboard. Step 2 Gently insert the audio cable onto the pin header. 20

31 Connecting the Power Switch Cable Step 1 Locate the power switch pin head on the EPIA-P720-B daughterboard. Step 2 Then gently insert the power switch cable onto the pin header. The red wire should be on pin 1 of the pin header. 21

32 Connecting the 10-pin UART Cable Step 1 Locate the 10-pin UART connector ports on the P720-B daughterboard and mainboard. Step 2 Follow the proper orientation of the connector ports. Then gently connect the UART cable to the daughterboard and the mainboard. 22

33 Connecting the 12-pin UART Cable Step 1 Locate the 12-pin UART connector ports on the P720-B daughterboard and mainboard. Step 2 Follow the proper orientation of the connector ports. Then gently connect the UART cable to the daughterboard and the mainboard. 23

35 3 Installing the expansion kit 25

36 PREPARING THE AMOS-3001 Before installing the storage expansion kit, the AMOS-3001 needs to be prepared. Step 1 Remove the memory access cover. Step 2 Remove the cable hole cover on the memory access cover. File down any rough edges on the cable hole. 26

37 Step 3 Thread the required cables for the SATA storage device through the cable hole. To install a SATA 2.5 hard disk, a SATA power cable and a SATA data cable are required. If installing the WLAN kit the WLAN USB cable also needs to be threaded through the cable hole. Step 4 Gently remove the rear face plate to remove the chassis top cover. 27

38 Step 5 Carefully unscrew and remove the P720-B daughterboard. Lift the board off vertically until it has been disconnected from all pins, otherwise the pin header may be bent. Step 6 Wrap the SATA cable and SATA power cable into the available space on the P720-B daughterboard. 28

39 Step 7 First insert the SATA data and SATA power cable through the cable hole in the bottom plate. Ensure that the cable is placed in the spacing on the daughterboard. Then gently insert the SATA data and power cable onto the board connector. 29

40 INSTALLING THE SATA 2.5 HARD DISK Step 1 Remove the SATA 2.5 hard disk mounting bracket. Step 2 Align the mounting holes on the SATA 2.5 hard disk with the mounting holes on the hard disk mounting bracket. 30

41 Step 3 Secure the hard disk in place with four hard disk screws. Then connect the SATA power and data cables to the hard disk. Step 4 Align the mounting bracket with the mounting holes on the storage chassis. Secure the bracket in place with four screws. 31

42 INSTALLING THE WLAN KIT Step 1 Locate the WLAN antenna hole and install the WLAN antenna. Step 2 Mount the WLAN module on the bottom side of storage chassis cover with two screws. 32

43 Step 3 Flip the cover plate over and connect the WLAN USB cable to the mini USB connector on the WLAN module. Step 4 Connect the WLAN antenna cable to the mini RF connector on the WLAN module. 33

44 Step 5 Locate the WLAN pin head on the P720-B daughterboard. Step 6 First insert the WLAN cable through the cable hole in the bottom plate of AMOS-3001 then gently connect the WLAN cable to the WLAN pin header on the daughterboard. Note: When the WLAN cable is installed, USB port 5 will be disabled. 34

45 MOUNTING THE STORAGE CHASSIS Step 1 First remove the cover of the IDE Flash DOM slot. Then position the AMOS-3001 directly above the storage chassis with the bottom side facing down. Align the mounting holes of the AMOS-3001 with those of the storage chassis. 35

46 Step 2 Insert the storage chassis cover in between the AMOS-3001 and storage chassis. Step 3 Secure first the storage chassis to the AMOS-3001 with four screws. Then replace the IDE Flash DOM cover with two screws. 36

47 INSTALLING THE MOUNTING PLATE Step 1 Fasten the VESA mounting plate to a VESA mountable device with four screws. Step 2 Position the mounting brackets on both sides of the storage expansion kit with four screws. 37
