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. Case Assembly

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.

6. Ақаулықтарды жою

Бұл бөлім сізде кездесетін жалпы мәселелерді қарастырады.

6.1. SSD анықталмады

• 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 қосу арқылы dtparam=pciex1_gen=3.
• SSD үйлесімділігі: Confirm your M.2 NVMe SSD is compatible with the PCIe interface and supported sizes (2230/2242/2260/2280).

6.2. Салқындату өнімділігі

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

6.3. Құрастырудағы қиындықтар

• Ribbon Cables: Be gentle when handling and connecting the FPC ribbon cables. Ensure they are fully inserted and the latches are secured.
• Компоненттерді туралау: 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.
