Read the following precautions before setting up a Shuttle XPC. CAUTION Incorrectly replacing the battery may damage this computer. Replace only with the same or equivalent as recommended by Shuttle. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Laser compliance statement The optical disc drive in this PC is a laser product.
Function Introduction . XPC Introduction The Shuttle XPC is the original high-performance Small Form Factor (SFF) computer. Since the first model was introduced in 200, the XPC has become the world’s best- selling SFF computer brand. Each Shuttle XPC is sold as a ”barebone” computer~chassis, power supply and motherboard. The user must add his own processor, memory, drives and, as ap- plicable, expansion cards. The XPC has been designed to be easily assembled and configured directly by the end user. Consumers can choose to buy preconfigured, ready-to-run XPC’s as well~a list of Shuttle-authorized value-added resellers can be found at www.shuttle.com. The Shuttle XPC owes its popularity to its unique combination of small-size, high- performance and near universal component compatibility. However, unlike ordinary desktop computers, Shuttle XPC’s have been engineered as complete systems. The XPC concept can be summarized as: Use of high-performance, industry-standard components; Minimum size possible,...

.5.2 Jumper Settings Front Panel Connector Header JP4 can be used to provide operation status signals to the front daughterboard. Note that this is an alternative header to the 50pins streamline header that also con- nects the motherboard to the front daughterboard. Header JP5 is used to connect cable to front panel connector mounted on front-panel or back-panel. The front panel is where the hard drive activity lights, reset button, on/off button, computer power on light, USB connectors, eSATA connectors, and audio headers, are located.

Fan Connector 3. Remove the ICE module from the chassis and put it aside. 2.2.2 Install the CPU This 366 pin socket is fragile and easily damaged. Always use extreme care when installing a CPU and limit the number of times that you remove or change the CPU. Before installing the CPU, make sure to turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet to prevent damage to the CPU. Follow the steps below to correctly install the CPU into the motherboard CPU socket. . First unlock and raise the socket lever.

2. Press with your thumb, then move it to the left until it is released from the retention tab. Lift the metal load plate on the CPU socket. Metal load plate 3. Remove the protective socket cover from the CPU socket. DO NOT touch socket contacts. To protect the CPU socket, always replace the protective socket cover when the CPU is not installed. 4. Orientate the CPU and socket, aligning the yellow triangle on the corner of the CPU with the triangle on the socket or you may align the CPU notches with the socket alignment keys. Make sure the CPU is perfectly horizontal, insert the CPU into the socket. Notch on the CPU/ Alignment Key of the CPU Socket LGA1366 CPU Pin Corner of the CPU Socket Notch on the CPU/ Triangle Pin Marking on the CPU Alignment Key of the CPU Socket Please be aware of the CPU orientation, DO NOT force the CPU into the socket of prevent bending the pins on the socket and damaging the CPU!
5. Close the metal load plate, lower the CPU socket lever and lock in place. Metal load plate Retention tab Load lever 6. Spread thermal paste evenly on the CPU surface. Thermal Paste application area Please do not apply excess amount of thermal paste. The thermal paste is toxic and inedible. If it gets into your eyes or touches your skin. ensure to wash it off immediately and seek professional medical help. 2.2.3 Install the ICE Module . Place the ICE module on top of the CPU die and match the screws with the holes on the motherboard.
2. Screw the ICE module to the motherboard. Note to press down on the opposite diag o nal corner while tightening each screw. 3. Connect the fan connector. Fan Connector 4. Fasten the Smart Fan to the chassis with the 4 thumbscrews. 2.3 Memory module Installation 2.3. Guidelines for Memory Configuration Before installing DIMMs, read and follow these guidelines for memory configuration. Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended that memory of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used. (Go to Shuttle's website for the latest memory support list.) Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in only one direction. If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.
This motherboard provides four DDR3 memory sockets and supports Dual/ Triple Channel Technology. After the memory is installed, the BIOS will automatically detect the specifi- cations and capacity of the memory. Dual or Triple Channel memory mode may double or triple the original memory bandwidth. You may install varying memory sizes, the system maps the total size of the lower-sized channel for the dual-channel or triple-channel configuration. Any excess memory from the higher-sized channel is then mapped for single-channel operation.

2.3.2 Installing a Memory Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both the moth- erboard and the components. DDR3 and DDR2 DIMMs are not compatible to each other or DDR DIMMs. Be sure to install DDR3 DIMMs on this motherboard. Follow the steps below to correctly install your memory modules in the memory sockets. . Unlock the DIMM latch. 2. Align the memory module's cutout with the DIMM slot notch. Slide the memory module into the DIMM slot. A DDR3 memory module has a cutout, so it can only fit in one direction. DDR3 240-pin 1.5V Cutout Notch Latch Latch 48*2=96 pin 72*2=144 pin 3. Check that the latches are closed, and the memory module is firmly installed. Repeat to install additional memory modules if required.

Appendix BIOS Settings The SX58H7 BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify basic system configuration. This information is stored in battery-backed RAM so that it retains Setup information even if the system power is turned off. The system BIOS manages and executes variety of hardware related functions including: System date and time Hardware execution sequence Power management functions Allocation of system resources Enter the BIOS To enter the BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) utility, follow these steps: Step. Power on the computer. The system will perform its POST (Power-On Self Test) routine checks. Step2. Press the <Del> key immediately, or at the following message: Press DEL to enter SETUP If you miss wordings mentioned in step2 (the message disappears before you can respond) and you still wish to enter BIOS Setup, restart the system and try again by turning the computer OFF and ON again or by pressing the <RESET> switch located at the computer’s front-panel. You may also reboot by simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>,<Alt>, <Del> keys simultaneously. Step3. When you enter the BIOS program, the CMOS Setup Utility will display the Main Menu, as shown in the next section.
The Main Menu Once you enter the AMI BIOS(tm) CMOS Setup Utility, the Main Menu will appear on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from several setup functions and two exit choices. Use the arrow keys to select among the items and press <Enter> to accept and enter the sub-menu. Note that a brief description of each highlighted selection appears at the bottom of the screen. Setup Items The main menu includes the following main setup categories. Recall that some systems may not include all entries.
