[. . . ] Connect the 4-pin power plug to the power connector of the IDE hard disk drive, or the Serial ATA hard disk drive with a 4-pin power plug. For Serial ATA hard disk drive without a 4-pin power plug, connect the 15-pin SATA power adapter plug to the power connector at the back of the drive, then connect the other end (4-pin male) to a 4-pin (female) power plug from the power supply unit. See the Appendix for the power supply specifications. REAR SPK CTR BASS SIDE SPK Voltage selector The PSU has a 115 V/230 V voltage selector switch located beside the power connector. Use this switch to select the appropriate system input voltage according to the voltage supply in your area. NOTE. The voltage selector is set to 230 V by default. MIC IN FRONT LINE IN If the voltage supply in your area is 100-127 V, set the switch to 115 V. If the voltage supply in your area is 200-240 V, set the switch to 230 V. Setting the switch to 115 V in a 230 V environment will seriously damage the system! eSATA 2-20 Chapter 2: Basic installation 2. 11 1. 2.

Push the cover slightly toward the front panel until it fits in place. 4. 4 5. 3 4 2 ASUS T3-M3N8200 2-21 2-22 Chapter 2: Basic installation Chapter 3 This chapter helps you power up the system and install drivers and utilities from the support CD. Starting up 3. 1 Installing an operating system The barebone system supports Windows® 2000/XP operating systems (OS). Always install the latest OS version and corresponding updates so you can maximize the features of your hardware. Because motherboard settings and hardware options vary, use the setup procedures presented in this chapter for general reference only. Refer to your OS documentation for more information. 3. 2 Powering up The system has one power buttons located on the front panel. · The total current consumed must NOT exceed the power supply capability (+5VSB) whether under normal condition or in sleep mode. +5V (Default) 23 +5VSB +5V (Default) 2. Keyboard power (3-pin KBPWR) This jumper allows you to enable or disable the keyboard wake-up feature. Set this jumper to pins 2-3 (+5VSB) to wake up the computer when you press a key on the keyboard (the default is the Space Bar). This feature requires an ATX power supply that can supply at least 500 mA on the +5VSB lead, and a corresponding setting in the BIOS.

CPU fan connector (4-pin CPU_FAN) The fan connector supports the proprietary CPU fan. Connect the fan cable to the fan connector on the motherboard, making sure that the black wire of the cable matches the ground pin of the connector.

Insufficient air flow within the system may damage the motherboard components. DO NOT place jumper caps on the fan connectors! ASUS T3-M3N8200 4-5 2. ATX power connectors (24-pin EATXPWR, 4-pin ATX12V) These connectors are for the 24-pin and 4-pin power plugs from the power supply unit. The plugs from the power supply unit are designed to fit these connectors in only one orientation. Find the proper orientation and push down firmly until the connectors completely fit. Do not forget to connect the 4-pin ATX12V power plug to the ATX12V connector on the motherboard; otherwise, the system will not boot up.
