1) Cut off the round parts from the acrylic back plate and save these for later. These will be used as spacers for the SimuCUBE motherboard. Big case spacers.png

2) Attach grounding and mains wires to the power connector

3) Fix the power plug to the acrylic back plate with M3x10 countersunk screws and M3 locking nuts. Big case powerplug1.png Big case powerplug2.png

4) Put the two pieces of thin tape to the power supply as in the image (helps with assembly). Unscrew the marked screws to detach the DIN rail connector and the other marked screws. Follow the instructions with the type of power supply you have (SDR-480 or NDR-480).

5) Attach the power supply to the back plate with four M3x10 button head screws (be careful, do not tighten too much!). Slide the bottom plate below the power supply (use the two screwless holes on the bottom of the PSU as a reference to align the bottom) and to the slots on the back plate and screw two M3x10 button head screws from the bottom.

6) Connect grounding and mains wires to the power supply's screw terminal.

7) Attach IONI to the SimuCUBE motherboard by pressing it to the PCI-E-type connector. Align the motherboard onto the acrylic middle piece so that the edge of the connector edge of the circuit board is flush with the main edge of the acrylic (not the three protruding parts) and the holes line up. Use the four spacers cut from the acrylic back plate, four M4x16 screws and four locking nuts. Big case middle1.png Big case middle2.png

8) Attach the 80mm fan on the acrylic side piece with four M5x10 button head screws, use the photo as a reference on which way the fan should be aligned. This configuration sucks air to the case and blows it towards the IONI and through the power supply. Big case fan1.png Big case fan2.png

9) Slide the motherboard assembly on top of the power supply and into the slots on the back of the case. Big case inside1.png Big case inside2.png

10) Attach positive (+48VDC), negative and grounding wires between the power supply output and motherboard terminals.

11) Attach the fan side plate in place and attach the fan wires to the quick terminal on the motherboard.

12) Attach the two 10mm brass cubes to the acrylic front plate with M3x6 button head screws and align the holes as shown on the image. Big case front1.png Big case front2.png

13) Attach the left exhaust panel and top panel with the logo to the case and carefully wiggle the front plate in place. Screw one M3x6 button head screw from either side to the 10mm brass cubes previously attached to the front plate. Big case whole1.png Big case whole2.png
