Using an 8-pin EPS cable may require splitting; consult the pinout diagram below. Part 3: Connectors & Jumper Settings – The “Extra Quality” Pinout Guide This is where most low-quality manuals fail. Here are the exact pinouts for the Acer G41T-AM Rev 1.0’s most critical connectors. 3.1 Front Panel Header (F_PANEL Pins 1-9) Located at the bottom-right corner of the board. Polarity matters for LEDs but not for switches. | Pin | Signal | Pin | Signal
