Important notes With the mainboard installed you must open the system to access the mainboard. How to dismantle and reassemble the system is described in the operating manual accompanying the system. Connecting cables for peripherals must be adequately shielded to avoid interference.

!

Observe the safety notes in the operating manual of your system. Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion. Components can become very hot during operation. Ensure you do not touch components when making extensions to the mainboard. There is a danger of burns!

The shipped version of this board complies with the requirements of the EEC directive 2004/108/EC "Electromagnetic compatibility" and 2006/95/EC “Low voltage directive”. Compliance was tested in a typical PC configuration. When installing the board, refer to the specific installation information in the manual for the receiving device.

i

The warranty is invalidated if the system is damaged during the installation or replacement of expansions. Information on which expansions you can use is available from your sales outlet or the customer service centre.

Information about boards To prevent damage to the mainboard, the components and conductors on it, please take great care when you insert or remove boards. Take great care to ensure that extension boards are slotted in straight, without damaging components or conductors on the mainboard, or any other components, for example EMI spring contacts. Remove the plug from the mains outlet so that system and mainboard are totally disconnected from the mains voltage. Be careful with the locking mechanisms (catches, centring pins etc.) when you replace the mainboard or components on it, for example memory modules or processors. Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for leverage.

Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are identifiable by the label shown. When you handle boards fitted with ESDs, you must, under all circumstances, observe the following: ● You must always discharge static build up (e.g. by touching a grounded object)

before working. ● The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges. ● Remove the power plug from the mains supply before inserting or removing

boards containing ESDs. ● Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges. ● Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.

Memory Installation Procedure When installing memory modules, make sure the modules align properly with the memory socket. There should be keys (small indents) on your memory modules that fit according to the keys in the memory socket. DDR modules and sockets have only one key, which is slightly near the center of the module/socket. The method of installing memory modules is detailed in the following diagrams.

Installing a memory module

Board Installation

Removing a memory module

1

1

► Push the clips on the right and left of the memory slot outward (1). ► Pull the memory module out of the memory slot (2).

i

When installing memory, a module may require a considerable amount of force to seat properly, although this is very rare. To avoid bending and damaging your motherboard, place it on its anti-static bag and onto a flat surface, and then proceed with memory installation.

!

You must unplug the power connector to the motherboard before performing system hardware changes, to avoid damaging the board or expansion device.

Installing the Processor and Heatsink

Installing the processor

!

The processor socket ist covered with a protective cap to protect the spring contacts In a warranty case the mainboard can only be taken back by Fujitsu Siemens Computers with the protective cap secured! Never touch the underside of the processor. Even minor soiling such as grease from the skin can impair the processor's operation or destroy the processor. Place the processor in the socket with extreme care, as the spring contacts of the socket are very delicate and must not be bent.

► Remove the heat sink.

2

► Press down the lever (1) and unhook it (2). ► Fold up the frame.

3

► Remove the old processor (3) from the socket.

Mounting heat sink

i

Use only the heat sink supplied with your system!

Be sure to use heat conducting material between the processor and the heat sink. If a heat conducting pad (rubber-like foil) is already applied to the heat sink, then use it. Otherwise you must apply a very thin layer of heat conducting paste. Heat conducting pads can only be used once. If you remove the heat sink, you must clean it and apply new heat conducting paste before you remount it.

► Depending on the configuration variant, you

must pull a protective foil off the heat sink or coat the heat sink with heat conducting paste before fitting it.

► Secure the heat sink - depending on the model - with four screws or push it into the mounts.

Installing Add-In Cards Before installing add-in cards, please check if they are fully compatible with your motherboard.

PCI-E X16 (x16)

PCI-E X8 (x 8)

PCI-X 133

PCI32

PCI-E X16 (x16)

P CI-X 133

Simply find the appropriate slot for your add-in card and insert the card firmly. Do not force any add-in cards (or anything else) into any slots if they won’t seat in place. It’s better to try another slot or return the faulty card rather than damaging both the motherboard and the add-in card.

i

It’s a good practice to install add-in cards in a staggered manner, rather than directly adjacent to each other. This allows air to more easily circulate within the chassis, providing improved cooling for all installed devices.

Board Installation

Installing the Power Supply There are three power connectors on this motherboard: ● 24-pin P1 baseboard power connector (according SSI 3.51 spec) ● 8-pin processor power connector (according SSI 3.51 spec) ● 10-pin additional baseboard power connector (5xGND, 5x+12V) The used power supply is a split plane PSU with six +12V-rails and delivers 1000W continuous power. One rail is for each processor, one for systemboard and three for peripherals (e.g. HHDs, add. 6-pin graphics connector). The power supply has: ● one 24-pin molex-type connector for the baseboard (P1) ● one 8-pin molex-type connector for the processor power (P17) ● one 10-pin molex-type additional baseboard power connector (P18) – two yellow wires and two

black wires (only for use with this workstation) ● four 6-pin connectors for graphic adapters (P12, P13, P15, P16) ● two 8-pin connectors for graphic adapters (P11, P14) ● several HDD-, floppy- and SATA power connectors Two onboard switching voltage regulators that are sourced by separate +12V power rails provide each CPU’s power. This +12V CPU power source is from the onboard 8-pin square connector. The +12V power on the 24-pin baseboard power connector and on the 10-pin additional baseboard power connector is for system board and separated from CPU +12V regulator power source. Therefore, the CPU will not be powered if you do not connect the 8-pin square 12V power connector.

You must unplug the power supply before plugging in the power cables to motherboard connectors.

Board Installation

Replacing lithium battery In order to permanently save the system information, a lithium battery is installed to provide the CMOS-memory with a current. A corresponding error message notifies the user when the charge is too low or the battery is empty. The lithium battery must then be replaced.

!

Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion! The lithium battery may be replaced only with an identical battery or with a type recommended by the manufacturer. Do not throw lithium batteries into the household waste. They must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations concerning special waste. Make sure that you insert the battery the right way round. The plus pole must be on the top!

The lithium battery holder exists in different designs that function in the same way.

BIOS update When should a BIOS update be carried out? Fujitsu Siemens Computers makes new BIOS versions available to ensure compatibility to new operating systems, new software or new hardware. In addition, new BIOS functions can also be integrated. A BIOS update should always also be carried out when a problem exists that cannot be solved with new drivers or new software.

How does a BIOS update work? 1. BIOS update under DOS with BIOS Flash Update bootable floppy disk ► Download the update file from our website to your PC. ► Insert an empty floppy disk (1.44 MB). ► Run the update file (e.g. 2568102.EXE). ► A bootable update floppy disk is created. Leave this floppy disk in the drive. ► Restart the PC. ► Follow the instructions on screen. 2. BIOS update under Windows with DeskFlash utility A BIOS update can also be carried out directly under Windows with the DeskFlash utility. DeskFlash is contained on the “Drivers & Utilites” CD (under DeskUpdate).
