MAXIMUS EXTREME IEEE 1394a connector

IE1394_2

Never connect a USB cable to the IEEE 1394a connector. Doing so will damage

the motherboard!

You can connect the 1394 cable to ASUS Q-Connector (1394, red) first, and

then install the Q-Connector (1394) to the 1394 connector onboard.

6. Thermal sensor cable connectors (2-pin OPT_TEMP1-3)

These connectors are for temperature monitoring. Connect the thermal

sensor cables to these connectors and place the other ends to the devices.

The OPT_TEMP1/2/3 connectors are for the devices that you want to monitor

temperature. The optional fans can work with the temperature sensors for a

better cooling effect.
