Intel® Server Board S1200BTL and S1200BTLRM Quick Start User's Guide

Thank you for buying the Intel® Server Board S1200BTL and S1200BTLRM. The following information will help you integrate your new server board into a server chassis. The Intel® Server Board S1200BTL and S1200BTLRM are designed for use with the Intel® Server Chassis P4000 series.

For details on these chassis or to select a third party chassis,

please visit http://www.intel.com/go/serverbuilder and

http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server.

When installing the server board into a reference chassis, refer to the reference chassis instructions.

If you are not familiar with ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) procedures used during system integration, please see the Intel® Server Board S1200BT Service Guide, available on the Intel® Server Deployment Toolkit CD or at http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server.

Please boot to the Intel® Server Deployment Toolkit CD ﬁrst for BIOS and ﬁrmware conﬁguration and updates.

Read all cautions and warnings ﬁrst before starting your server system integration.

Cautions:

Attach the Bumpers

Remove the backing from each

bumper.

Press a bumper onto each of

the six circles.

Install the

Processor

When removing the protective cover, DO NOT TOUCH the gold socket wires.

To avoid damage, DO NOT DROP the cover onto the socket wires or components.

When unpacking a processor, hold by the edges only to avoid touching the gold contact wires.

A. Open the Socket Lever

Push the lever handle down

and away from the socket to release it.

Rotate the lever

open all the way.

B. Open the Load Plate

Open the load plate as shown.

C. Unpack the Processor

Carefully remove protective cover as shown.

Save the protective cover.

Install the Processor

CAUTION: The underside of the processor has components that may damage the socket wires if installed improperly.

Processor must align correctly with the socket opening before installation. DO NOT DROP processor into socket!

DO NOT DROP processor into socket!

Orient the processor with the socket so that the processor

cutouts match the two socket pins.

Note location

of gold key at corner of processor.

Components

Carefully lower the load plate over the processor.

Observe normal ESD [Electrostatic Discharge] procedures during system integration to avoid possible damage to server board and/or other components.

Install Active Heat Sink(s)

An active heat sink is required for the Intel® Entry Server Chassis P4000 series. A typical active

heat sink is shown at right. Rotate the active heat sink so that the power connector can reach the CPU fan header on the server board.

CAUTION: The heat sink has thermal interface material (TIM) on the underside of it. Take caution not to damage the thermal interface material. Use

gloves to avoid injuries from sharp edges.

Use the following procedure to install an active heat sink to your server board:

Make sure the screwdriver slot at the top

of each fastener is rotated perpendicular to the blades of the heat sink as shown.

TIM

Align heat sink to the holes

in board and lower assembly

Note: Heatsink styles may vary

to board. Snaps go through holes in server board.

Repeat B-D for each fastener in the numerical order shown at left.

Press downward

on the top of the cap.

Plug the fan cable into the CPU fan header.
