3. הוראות התקנה

Follow these steps carefully to assemble your GeeekPi DeskPi Lite Pi5 Case with your Raspberry Pi 5 and M.2 NVMe SSD.

3.1. Heatsink and Thermal Pad Installation

1. Carefully peel off the protective films from both sides of the thermal pads.
2. Apply the thermal pads to the corresponding chips on your Raspberry Pi 5 board as indicated in Figure 3, Step 1. Ensure good contact.
3. Align the Armor Lite V5 Active Cooler with the Raspberry Pi 5 board, ensuring the fan connector is near the fan header. Gently press down to secure it, making sure the thermal pads create firm contact between the heatsink and the chips.
4. Secure the heatsink to the Raspberry Pi 5 board using the provided screws, as shown in Figure 3, Step 2.
5. Connect the fan cable from the Armor Lite V5 Active Cooler to the appropriate fan header on the Raspberry Pi 5 board.

3.2. Daughter Board and PCIe Cable Connection

1. Connect the PCIe FPC cable to the Raspberry Pi 5's PCIe slot and the DeskPi V1 Daughter Board's PCIe slot. Ensure the cable is inserted correctly and securely.
2. Carefully align and connect the Raspberry Pi 5 board to the DeskPi V1 Daughter Board, ensuring all ports and connectors are properly seated. This connection includes the USB-C port and the HDMI ports.
3. Insert the M.2 NVMe SSD into the designated slot on the DeskPi V1 Daughter Board. Secure it with the provided M2x6.5mm standoff and M2x3mm screw. The case supports M.2 NVMe SSDs of sizes 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280.

3.3. הרכבת המארז

1. Place the assembled Raspberry Pi 5 and daughter board into the bottom shell of the DeskPi Lite case. Ensure it sits flush and all ports align with the case openings.
2. Secure the board assembly to the bottom case using the M2.5x6 screws.
3. Attach the GPIO expansion board to the GPIO pins on the Raspberry Pi 5.
4. Place the top shell of the case onto the bottom shell, aligning the screw holes. Secure the top shell with the M2.5x10 screws.

4.4. חריץ לכרטיס MicroSD

The MicroSD card slot remains accessible from the outside, allowing for easy insertion and removal of the card without disassembling the case.

5. תחזוקה

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your DeskPi Lite Pi5 Case and Raspberry Pi 5, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• ניקוי: Periodically clean the exterior of the case with a soft, dry cloth. For dust accumulation in the ventilation grilles, use compressed air. Ensure the device is powered off and disconnected from power before cleaning.
• תחזוקת מאוורר: If the active cooler fan becomes noisy or less effective, inspect it for dust buildup and gently clean it with compressed air or a soft brush.
• תנאים סביבתיים: Operate the case in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and moisture.

6. פתרון תקלות

סעיף זה עוסק בבעיות נפוצות שאתה עשוי להיתקל בהן.

6.1. כונן SSD לא זוהה

• Check PCIe Cable: Ensure the PCIe FPC cable is securely connected at both ends (Raspberry Pi 5 and daughter board).
• SSD Seating: Verify that the M.2 NVMe SSD is correctly seated in its slot and secured with the screw.
• Raspberry Pi OS Configuration: Ensure your Raspberry Pi OS is updated and configured to recognize NVMe drives. You may need to force PCIe to Gen3.0 in config.txt על ידי הוספה dtparam=pciex1_gen=3.
• תאימות SSD: Confirm your M.2 NVMe SSD is compatible with the PCIe interface and supported sizes (2230/2242/2260/2280).

6.2. ביצועי קירור

• Thermal Pad Contact: Ensure the thermal pads are correctly placed and make firm contact between the Raspberry Pi 5 chips and the heatsink.
• חיבור מאוורר: Verify the active cooler fan is properly connected to the Raspberry Pi 5's fan header.
• מבצע מעריצים: Note that the fan typically activates when the CPU temperature reaches approximately 65 degrees Celsius. This is normal operation.

6.3. קשיי הרכבה

• Ribbon Cables: Be gentle when handling and connecting the FPC ribbon cables. Ensure they are fully inserted and the latches are secured.
• יישור רכיבים: Double-check the alignment of the Raspberry Pi 5 board with the daughter board and the case. Do not force components if they do not fit easily.
• Power Button Mechanism: When installing the Raspberry Pi 5, ensure the case's power button mechanism aligns correctly with the Pi's onboard power button to avoid damage.
