- Refer to the following for information on connecting the motherboard s optional devices 22
- Sata1 2 serial ata connectors 22
- These connectors are used to support the serial ata devices for the highest data transfer rates 6 gb s simpler disk drive cabling and easier pc assembly it doubles the transfer rate of current sata 3 gb s interface 22
- This header allows the user to install auxiliary front oriented microphone and line out ports for easier access 22
- Case chassis intrusion detect header 23
- F_usb1 3 usb 2 front panel usb 2 headers 23
- Installing the motherboard 23
- Please make sure that the usb cable has the same pin assignment as indicated above a different pin assignment may cause damage or system hang up 23
- Sata3 6 serial ataii connectors 23
- The motherboard has three usb 2 headers supporting six usb 2 ports addition ally some computer cases have usb 2 ports at the front of the case if you have this kind of case use auxiliary usb 2 connector to connect the front mounted ports to the motherboard 23
- These connectors are used to support the serial ata 3gb s devices simpler disk drive cabling and easier pc assembly it eliminates limitations of the current parallel ata interface but maintains register compatibility and software compatibility with par allel ata 23
- This detects if the chassis cover has been removed this function needs a chassis equipped with instrusion detection switch and needs to be enabled in bios 23
- Unlike f_usb2 3 in this mainboard f_usb1 supports ez charger technology pro vides about 1a current than general usb port in off mode for usb devices it is useful and excellent especially for the iphone ipad and ipod touch devices that need a large amount of current for faster recharging within less time 23
- Installing the motherboard 24
- Spdifo spdif out header 24

- Connecting pins 1 and 3 to a front panel mounted led provides visual indication that data is being read from or written to the hard drive for the led to function properly an ide drive should be connected to the onboard ide interface the led will also show activity for devices connected to the scsi hard drive activity led connector 31
- Connecting pins 2 and 4 to a single or dual color front panel mounted led provides power on off sleep and message waiting indication 31
- Front panel header 31
- Hard drive activity led 31
- Installing the motherboard 31
- Power sleep message waiting led 31
- Power switch 31
- Reset switch 31
- Supporting the power on off function requires connecting pins 6 and 8 to a momen tary contact switch that is normally open the switch should maintain contact for at least 50 ms to signal the power supply to switch on or off the time requirement is due to internal de bounce circuitry after receiving a power on off signal at least two seconds elapses before the power supply recognizes another on off signal 31
- Supporting the reset function requires connecting pin 5 and 7 to a momentary contact switch that is normally open when the switch is closed the board resets and runs post 31
- The front panel header f_panel provides a standard set of switch and led headers commonly found on atx or micro atx cases refer to the table below for information 31
- This concludes chapter 2 the next chapter covers the bios 31
- Users please note that the above picture is for reference only you should determine the header pin definition by the actual key pin location 31
