Chapter 2 System Setup The following procedures are provided to assist you in installing a motherboard (or backplane), disk drives, and plug-in cards into the ACP-4320. Please also refer to the Appendix A, Exploded Diagram, for the detail parts of the chassis. 2.1 Removing the Chassis Cover To remove the cover of the ACP-4320, please refer to Figure 2.1. Figure 2.
2.2 Installing the Motherboard The ACP-4320MB accepts both an ATX and a microATX motherboard. To install a motherboard, please proceed as follows: 1. Remove the two screws, which mount the hold-down clamp to the ACP-4320MB chassis, then take out the hold-down clamp. 2. Find the yellow label (shown as Table 2.1) on the inside of the chassis bottom. It shows the copper stub locations for attaching the specific backplane or motherboard.
5. Refer to Figure 2.2, place the motherboard into the chassis, and fix it with screws. 6. Plug in the 20- or 24-pin ATX power connector and +12 V power connector from the power supply. 7. Connect the wires for the POWER switch, RESET switch, and the front USB from the motherboard to the front panel of the chassis. 8. Connect the wires for the POWER LED, HDD LED and LAN LED from the motherboard to the small LED board, which is attached to the front panel of the chassis.
2.3 Installing the Backplane & CPU Card The ACP-4320BP accepts an up to 15-slot PICMG 1.0 backplane or 12slot PICMG 1.3 express backplane. To install a backplane and a CPU card, proceed as follows: 2.3.1 Installing the Backplane 1. Remove the two screws, which mount the hold-down clamp to the ACP-4320BP chassis, then take out the hold-down clamp. 2. A yellow label (shown as Table 2.1) is located inside of the chassis bottom.
2.3.2 Installing the CPU Card 1. Before installing the CPU card, check all devices, such as CPU, CPU cooler and RAM modules and make sure they have been installed on the CPU card properly. 2. Carefully insert the CPU card in a PICMG slot. Make sure that the card bracket has been inserted properly and the other edge of the card has been fixed in the guiding rail. Fasten the card at the top of the bracket with a screw. 3.
Note: Most of Advantech's full-sized CPU cards support the front USB function. However, only the PCA-6184-B, PCA-6186-B, PCA-6188, PCA6190 and the later full-sized CPU cards support the front LAN LED function. 2.4 Installing Add-on Card To install a plug-in card, please proceed as follows: 1. Select a vacant slot to install the add-on card. Then remove the corresponding I/O bracket attached to the rear plate of the chassis. 2. Insert a plug-in card.
