6. Connect case leads to motherboard:

6.1 Locate the top panel leads. There is

also a USB lead for the front panel.

Your motherboard documentation

will provide schematics. The triang-

ular markings on the leads indi-

cate positive wires.

6.2 Locate front panel leads and case

speaker. Again, refer to your

motherboard’s documentation

for placement schematics.

(For power supply version only)

5.3 Place the probe labeled ‘HDD’ to the

hard-drive’s surface. Use thermal

tape for best results.

Note: You may also leave a sensor loose in the chassis in order to monitor

the ambient system temperature. DO NOT place the sensor directly on the

CPU as it will damage the sensor.

5.4 Plug the 4-pin connector belonging

to the LCD into the power supply to

monitor system temperatures.

7.2 ATX 12V 4/8 Pin CPU connector.

7.5 PCI-Express connector.

7.6 Floppy drive connector.

7.3 4-pin Peripheral connector.

7.1 ATX 20/24 Pin main connector

7.4 Serial ATA (SATA) connector.

Connect PC components to the required power connector

for each device type.

6

4.4 Connect both fan controller ‘INPUT’s

to any available 4-pin power supply

connectors. Control air flow using the

respective knob on front of the case.

4.3 Select those to be used as intake fans

and connect male to female ends. The

remaining male end is connected to the

‘OUTPUT’ connector of the ‘cool air in’

fan controller. Repeat the steps for

exhaust fans using the ‘hot air out’ line.

5. Temperature probe setup:

5.2 Place the probe labeled ‘CPU’ to any

‘fin’ on the CPU’s heatsink and tape

in place. Thermal tape should be

used for best results.

5.1 Locate the two device temperature

probes.

3.2 From the outside rear of the case,

push PCI slot cover(s) toward the

inside of the chassis.

3.1 First, remove PCI slot covers. Lift

the ‘latch’, and open.

2.5 Align rails with hard drive bay

and insert.

3. Install PCI components:

1.3 If your motherboard included an

IO shield, you must remove the

X-Jupiter's IO shield. Use thumbs

or other object to push shield in-

ward (cover area with a cloth to

avoid injury from metal edges!).

1.5 Put brass standoffs in place. Align

motherboard with standoffs and

mount to case. This ATX mother-

board (12”x8.3”) only used notch-

es A1-A6. M8 was also used since

it lined up.

1.4 Refer to the motherboard holes

index for standoff placement for

your motherboard type. A full

ATX (12”x9.6”) board will use

notches A1-A9. Some mother-

boards may not use all notches.

Use any notches that line up

with your motherboard.

NOTE: Touch an unpainted metal

section of the chassis to discharge

static electricity before handling PC

components. An anti-static wrist

strap should also be worn to further

minimize the possibility of damage.

2.1 To install an optical or floppy drive,

remove the drive cover by placing

an index finger into either inlet and

pulling outward.

2.4 For hard-disk drives, find the

mounting rails labeled ‘HDD’.

Attach rails to both sides of

the drive.

2.2 For 5 1/4” drives, find the mounting

rails labeled ODD (optical disk drive).

Align left and right rails with drive,

and attach. For 3 1/2” drives, use the

rails labeled FDD (floppy disk drive).

2.3 Align rails with drive bay and

insert.

Screwdriver NOT required!

1. Motherboard installation:

1.1 Remove thumbscrews from the

rear of the X-Jupiter.

1.2 Push handle forward to release

(window version). Open and

remove panel.

NOTE: CPU and memory installation is not covered in this

manual. Please refer to the components’ documentation

for instructions.

3.3 Read your expansion card’s

documentation. Install card

into correct slot for your card

type (x1, x16, etc.). Once the

card is seated firmly, return

latch to the initial position.

4.1 In addition to fans included, you

may opt to install an 8 or 12cm

‘blowhole’ fan. In the above pic-

ture, the arrows indicate which

holes to use for mounting a

12cm fan.

4.2 Inside the chassis, mount fan to

the underside of ‘blowhole’ area

and screw into place. Make sure

the top vent is in the ‘Open’ posi-

tion to allow warm air to escape.
