HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE

REMOVING THE LEFT PANEL

Lay the case on its right side, with the I/O panel facing you. You will be removing the left panel (the one with the fan) Remove these case screws

1. Remove the two screws from the rear of the panel.
2. Using your thumbs, push up on the rear of the panel until the entire panel pops free from the rest of the chassis.

Note: Do not use your fingernails to pry or lift the panels.

Pop the panel free

MOTHERBOARD INSTALLATION

1. Lay the case down, with the open side facing up.
2. Make sure you have the correct I/O panel for your motherboard. If the panel provided with the case isn’t suitable, please contact your motherboard manufacturer for the correct I/O panel. Install the I/O panel at the rear of the case.
3. Align your motherboard with the motherboard standoff holes located at the rear of the case.
4. Screw-in your motherboard to the standoffs with the provided Phillips-head screws.
5. Attach the 24-pin connector of the included cable bundle to the motherboard and connect the 18-pin connector to the already installed PCB in the case.
6. Your motherboard is now installed. Refer to section 3.1 for instructions on how to connect the I/O panel cables.

Motherboard screw locations

INTERNAL 2.5” DEVICE INSTALLATION

2.5” hard drives can be mounted to a bracket underneath the motherboard. To access this bracket, you will need to remove the right-side panel. If you have just installed the motherboard, it can be helpful to replace the left side panel before continuing.

Note: It is important that you install the insulating sheets in step 3 to ensure that the hard drive(s) and bracket do not come into contact.

1.  Lay the case down on its left side, and remove the right panel as described in section 2.1.
2. Remove the four screws securing the bracket to the case (see picture).
3. Attach the red insulating strips by removing the adhesive covering and attaching them as shown in the picture.
4. Align your drive(s) such that all four screw holes in the drive will be utilized.
5. Secure your hard drive(s) to the bracket using the supplied black screws. Fasten screws to the bottom of the hard drive. The top of the hard drive will face the motherboard and the back of the hard drive will face the front of the case (see picture).
6. Place the insulating sheet on the exposed part of the motherboard in the case.
7. Reattach the HDD tray to the case, and replace the four screws.
8. Connect the data and power connectors from the motherboard and power supply to the device by pulling the connections through the opening left between the motherboard and the case (see picture).
   

CONNECTING THE FRONT I/O PORTS

USB 2.0

Connect the front I/O panel USB cables to the USB header pins on your motherboard. Check the motherboard manual to ensure that it matches the table below:

HD AUDIO PORTS

There is an Intel® 10-pin HDA (High Definition Audio) connector linked to the front panel of the case.

Locate the internal audio connectors from your motherboard or sound card and connect the corresponding audio cable. Consult your motherboard or sound card manual for the pin-out positions.

POWER SWITCH / HARD DISK DRIVE LED CONNECTORS

Connected to your front panel are LED and switch leads for power and HDD LED activity. Attach these to the corresponding connectors on your motherboard. Consult your motherboard user’s manual for specific pin header locations. For LEDs, colored wires are positive ( + ). White or black wires are negative ( – ). If the LED does not light up when the system is powered on, try reversing the connection. For more information on connecting LEDs to your motherboard, see your motherboard user’s manual. Note: Polarity  (positive and negative) does not matter for switches.

REWIRING MOTHERBOARD HEADER CONNECTIONS

There may come a time when you need to reconfigure the pin-out of a motherboard header connector. Examples could be for your USB header, audio input header, or some other front panel connector such as the Power Button connector.

 Before performing any work, please refer to your motherboard user’s manual or your motherboard manufacturer’s website to be sure of the pin-out needed for your connector.  We strongly recommend making a notated drawing before beginning work so that you can recover if your work gets disturbed.

1. Determine which wires you need to remove in order to rewire your plug to match the USB pin-outs on your motherboard (refer to your motherboard user’s manual). Working on one connector at a time, use a very small flathead screwdriver or similar tool to lift up on the black tab located beside the gold posts (squares). This will allow you to easily slide out the pins from the USB plug.
2. Working carefully so as not to damage the wires, connectors, or pins, slowly remove the pin from the connector. Repeat these steps for each wire you need to change.
3. Working carefully so as not to damage the wires, connectors or pins, slowly reinsert the pin into the correct slot of the connector then snap closed the black tab that was lifted in step 1. Repeat these steps for each wire you need to change.

MOUNTING YOUR ISK 110 VESA

VESA MOUNTING SYSTEM

Your ISK 110 VESA comes with a VESA mounting system that will allow you to attach the case to a VESA-compatible mount.

1.  Secure the included VESA mount to your LCD monitor with the screws provided before attaching the case.
2. Attach the case to the mount by moving the case onto the hook, then slide the case onto the hook to lock it into position.
3. (optional) Install up to 3 screws into the bottom of the assembly for added stability.

 STAND MOUNTING

Your ISK 110 VESA also comes with a stand so the unit can be installed without the use of the VESA mount if needed.

1. Invert the case so that the bottom of the mounting system is facing up.
2. Align the stand with the base of the case such that the long foot is aligned with the front of the unit.
3. Insert both feet into the proper holes in the case, and then slide the stand forward until it locks into place.
4. (optional) Install 1 screw into the bottom of the assembly for added stability.
