1.3 Special features

1.3.1 Product highlights

Latest processor technology

The PR-DLS533 motherboard supports the Intel 603/604-pin surface mount ZIF sockets. The processor features the Intel NetBurst™ micro-architecture that includes hyper-pipelined technology, a rapid execution engine, a 533/400MHz system bus, and an execution trace cache to offer a significant increase in performance. See page 2-4 for more information.

Xeon processor via dual

DDR memory support

Employing the Double Data Rate (DDR) memory technology, the PR-DLS533 motherboard supports up to 12GB of system memory using PC2100/1600 registered ECC DDR DIMMs. The ultra-fast 266MHz memory bus doubles the speed of the PC133 SDRAM to deliver the required bandwidth for the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. See page 2-10.

Dual-channel Ultra320 SCSI

The LSI®53C1030 64-bit/100MHz PCI-X SCSI controller is onboard to support dual-channel Ultra320 SCSI connectors that provide high-speed data transfer interfaces.

Advanced 64-bit PCI-X slots

The 64-bit/133MHz PCI-X slots onboard maximizes I/O bandwidth for the next generation 64-bit PCI-X cards that support 133MHz bus. The PCI-X specification 1.0a allows full peer-to-peer transactions between PCI buses and provides options for intelligent I/O and server management cards.

1.3.2 Value-added solutions

Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring

The CPU temperature is monitored by the ASUS ASIC to prevent overheating and damage. The system fan rotations per minute (RPM) is monitored for timely failure detection. The system voltage levels are monitored to ensure stable supply of current for critical components.

Dual function power switch

While the system is ON, pressing the power switch for less than 4 seconds puts the system to sleep mode or to soft-off mode, depending on the BIOS setting. Pressing the power switch for more than 4 seconds lets the system enter the soft-off mode regardless of the BIOS setting.

Remote Ring In

This feature allows the system to wake up remotely through an internal or external modem, if present.

Wake-Up support

The motherboard includes Wake-On-LAN, Wake-On-Ring, and BIOS Wake-Up features.

Server management

The motherboard comes with an ASMC connector that supports the optional ASMC-HE/ME/LE card to comply with server reliability, availability, and serviceability requirements. Remote management response via remote diagnostics and troubleshooting still works even when the operating system has stopped functioning.

ACPI ready

The Advanced Configuration power Interface (ACPI) provides more energy saving features for operating systems that support OS Direct Power Management (OSPM).

Concurrent PCI

This feature allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master buses to the memory and processor.

1-4

Chapter 1: Product introduction

Auto fan off

The system fans power off automatically when the system is in sleep mode. This feature reduces both power consumption and system noise.

Chassis intrusion detection

The motherboard supports chassis intrusion monitoring through the ASUS ASIC. A chassis intrusion event is retained in the system memory for more protection.

Smart BIOS

The 4Mbit firmware gives an easy-to-use interface that provides more control and protection to the motherboard. The BIOS has a boot block write protection and HD/SCSI/MO/ZIP/CD/Floppy boot selection, and is Year 2000 certified.

Compliance

Both the BIOS and the hardware levels of the motherboard meet the stringent requirements for SDG 2.0 certification. The new SDG 2.0 requirements for systems and components are based on the following high-level goals: support for Plug-and-Play compatibility and power management for configuring and managing all system components, 32-bit device drivers, and installation procedures for Windows NT/2000/XP. Color-coded connectors and descriptive icons make identification easy as required by the PC ‘99 specification.

ASUS PR-DLS533 motherboard

2.1 Motherboard installation

Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits into it. The PR-DLS533 uses the extended ATX form factor that measures 12 inches x 13 inches (30.5 x 33 cm).

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.

2.1.1 Placement direction

When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the chassis in the correct orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis as indicated in the image below.

2.1.2 Screw holes

Place 11 screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis.

Do not overtighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

Place this side towards the rear of the chassis

Chapter 2: Hardware information

2.3 Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard settings.

1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.

2. Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.

3. Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.

4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.

5. Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the

ATX power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause

severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.

2.4 Central Processing Unit (CPU)

2.4.1 Overview

The motherboard comes with dual surface mount 603/604-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) sockets. The sockets are designed for the Intel Processor in the 603/604-pin package with 512KB L2 cache. The processor includes the Intel® NetBurst™ micro-architecture that features the hyper-pipelined technology, rapid execution engine, 533/400MHz system bus, and execution trace cache. Together, these attributes improve system performance by allowing higher core frequencies, faster execution of integer instructions, and data transfer rate of up to 4.27GB/s or 3.2GB/s.

2.4.2 Installing the CPU

Note in the illustration that the CPU has a gold triangular mark on one corner. This mark indicates the processor Pin 1 that should match a specific corner of the CPU socket.

Incorrect installation of the CPU into the socket may bend the pins and severely damage the CPU!

CPU Socket 1 (outer socket)

CPU Socket 2 (inner socket)

1. The motherboard supports either one or two CPUs. If you are installing only one CPU, you MUST install it in CPU socket 1.

2. If you are installing two CPUs, install in the CPU socket 2 first.

CPU onboard LED

This warning LED (LED1) lights up if you installed two CPUs of different type/voltage. You must install identical CPUs on this motherboard.
