CE
This product has passed the CE test for environmental
specifications. Test conditions for passing included the
equipment being operated within an industrial enclosure.
In order to protect the product from being damaged by
ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) and EMI leakage, we strongly
recommend the use of CE-compliant industrial enclosure
products.
FCC Class A
This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation
of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference in which case the user will be required
to correct the interference at his own expense.
No part of this manual may be reproduced, copied,
translated or transmitted in any form or by any means
without the prior written permission of the original
manufacturer. Information provided in this manual is
intended to be accurate and reliable. However, the original
manufacturer assumes no responsibility for its use, nor for
any infringements upon the rights of third parties that
may result from such use.
Network Application Platforms
Follow these guidelines to ensure general safety:
Keep the chassis area clear and dust-free during and after •
installation.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that could get •
caught in the chassis. Fasten your tie or scarf and roll up
your sleeves.
Wear safety glasses if you are working under any •
conditions that might be hazardous to your eyes.
Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard •
to people or makes the equipment unsafe.
Disconnect all power by turning off the power and •
unplugging the power cord before installing or removing a
chassis or working near power supplies
Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions •
exist.
Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit; •
always check the circuit.

LITHIUM BATTERY CAUTION:
Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions
Operating Safety
Electrical equipment generates heat. Ambient air temperature
may not be adequate to cool equipment to acceptable
operating temperatures without adequate circulation. Be sure
that the room in which you choose to operate your system has
adequate air circulation.
Ensure that the chassis cover is secure. The chassis design
allows cooling air to circulate effectively. An open chassis
permits air leaks, which may interrupt and redirect the flow of
cooling air from internal components.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and
impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs when electronic
components are improperly handled and can result in complete
or intermittent failures. Be sure to follow ESD-prevention
procedures when removing and replacing components to avoid
these problems.
Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes
good skin contact. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself
by touching the metal part of the chassis.
Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap,
which should be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).

Power: If the LED is on it indicates that the system is powered on. If it is off, it indicates that the system is powered off.
Status: This LED is programmable. You could program it to display the operating status with the behavior like:
If the LED is green, it indicates that the system’s operational state is normal. If it is red, it indicates that the system is
malfunctioning.
HDD: If the LED blinks, it indicates data access activities; otherwise, it remains off.
F2 System Panel: LCD System Panel
The LCD System Panel can be programmed to display operating status and configuration information. For more details
or sample programming code, please refer to the Drivers and user’s manual CD.
F3 Management Port (provided by Realtek RTL8110SC)
This FastEthernet port can be connected for configuration or troubleshooting purpose. A conformity with IPMI (Intelligent
Platform Management Interface) can be implemented through OPMA on this interface. It is also capable of Preboot
eXecution Environment (PXE) to boot computers using a network interface. (This feature can be enabled or disable in
the BIOS; the default is disabled).

4 on-board Ethernet ports with 2 pairs of LAN bypass. The 4 port lan module is provided by Intel i350. With Intel
i350, it equips with Intel Virtualization for Connectivity (VT-c) as part of the Intel Virtualization Technology to improve
networking and I/O throughput on a virtualized system (The Intel VT is a hardware-assisted virtualization. This
processor of the system supports Intel Virtualization. You need to enable or disable this feature in the BIOS menu).
Moreover, 2 pairs (LAN1-LAN2, LAN3-LAN4) can be configured as LAN Bypass when failure events occur. This feature
can be enabled dynamically with a watch dog timer. Refer to your User’s Manual CD for a sample implementation of
this feature.
Note:
The availability of LAN Bypass varies depending on the model of Ethernet LAN module. For more 1.

Preparing the Hardware Installation
To access some components and perform certain service
procedures, you must perform the following procedures
first.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury,
electric shock, or damage to the equipment,
remove the power cord to remove power from the
server. The front panel Power On/Standby button
does not completely shut off system power.
Portions of the power supply and some internal
circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
Unpower the FX-3210 and remove the power cord.1.
Unscrew two screws on the back of top cover .2.
Slide the cover backwards and open the cover 3.
upwards.

Note:
All DIMMs installed must be the same speed 1.
(DDR3 1066, 1333 or 1600, unbuffered ECC or
non-ECC). Do not install DIMMs supporting
different speeds. The DDR3 1600 is supported on
the Ivy Bridge platform only.
The system can support up to 32 GB in maximum.2.
Since the system is capable of Dual Channel 3.
Architecture, some installation guidelines have to
be met to enable Dual Channel mode as directed.
To insert two DIMMs on the system, insert DIMMS
on slot J2 (blue) and J4 (blue). And use slot J3
(black) and J5 (black) if more slots are required.
(Use slot J3 and then slot J5 in sequence for the
additional DIMMS.)

Installing the System Memory
The motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features
data transfer rates of 1066, 1333 or 1600 MHz to meet the
higher bandwidth requirements of the latest operating
system and Internet applications. To install the memory:
Open the DIMM slot latches.1.
Install the DIMM.2.

CPU and the Heat Sink Installation
The FX-3210 sever system is powered by the MB-8865
sever board, which comes with one ZIF type LGA1155 CPU
socket.
Follow the procedures bellow for installing a CPU
Remove the CPU socket cap.1.
Press the load lever and release it from the retention 2.
tab.
Lift the load lever and then the plate.3.
Align the cut-out of the CPU and the notch on the 4.
socket. The CPU should fit perfectly into the socket.
Note that the CPU fits in the socket in only one
direction.

to the retention tab.
Hardware Setup
Peel off the sticker on the CPU to expose the thermal 6.
compound.
Put the heat sink on top of the installed CPU, and match 7.
the screws with the screw holes on the board. Fasten
two screws which are opposite to each other at a time
and then the other two. It is easier this way because of
the force of the spring.
