1 Setting up the System
Server Position
Please take note of the following criteria for creating a practical and safe workplace when setting up
your computer:
!
CAUTION
The system can be used anywhere the temperature is suitable for people. However, rooms with humidity over 70%, and dusty or dirty areas are not appropriate. In addition, do not expose the server
to any temperatures over +35°C or under +10°C.
!
CAUTION
Make sure that the cables connecting the server to peripheral devices are not tight.
!
CAUTION
Make sure that all power and connection cables are positioned so that they are not trip hazards.
!
CAUTION
When you save data to your server‘s hard disks or to a floppy disk, they are stored as magnetic information on the media. Make sure that they are not damaged by magnetic or electromagnetic fields.
!
CAUTION
Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices should
be placed on the same surface as the server. This is especially important for impact printers whose
vibrations could damage the hard disk.
!
CAUTION
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power,
telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise,
personal injury or equipment damage can result.
!
CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other
parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in chapter 3 only at an ESD workstation. If one
is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis
ground - any unpainted metal surface - on your server when handling parts.
!
ATTENTION
In order to fully separate the server from current, the power cord must be removed from the wall
outlet.

Hardware Requirements
Processor
A minimum of one Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor 2.0 GHz with 512 KB Cache cache support is required.
Memory
A minimum of one 128 MB Unbuffered, ECC or non-ECC, DDR266-, DDR333- or DDR400- compliant,
184-pin DIMMs.
All memory components and DIMMs used with the server board must comply with the DDR speci
fications.
For best performance and dual-channel interleave operation, a minimum of two DIMMs must be
installed and the DIMMs must be populated as follows:
• DIMM 1A and DIMM 2A: Populate these two sockets together first
• DIMM 1B and DIMM 2B: Populate these sockets in addition to DIMM 1A and DIMM 2A if four
DIMMs are to be used
• When four DIMMs are installed, the system will use dual-channel interleave. For single-channel
memory, a single DIMM can be installed in socket DIMM 1A.
✏ NOTES
Although the server board architecture allows the user to mix various sizes of DIMMs between channels, DIMMs must be identical within each bank.
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board should be
populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. This allows the
BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to accurately configure memory settings for
optimum performance. If non-SPD memory is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure
the memory settings, but performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not func
tion under the determined frequency.
-
-
For ECC functionality, all installed DIMMs must be ECC. If both ECC and non-ECC DIMMs are used,
ECC will be disabled and will not function.

3 Server Board Installations and Upgrades
Before You Begin
Before working with your server product, pay close attention to the safety instructions at the beginning of this manual.
Tools and Supplies Needed
• Phillips (cross head) screwdriver (#1 bit and #2 bit)
• Needle nosed pliers
• Antistatic wrist strap and conductive foam pad (recommended)
Installing a PCI Card
The PCI slots support full-height add-in cards or low profile PCI add-in cards. If a low profile card is
installed in the standard full-height riser card, it must be equipped with a standard full-height PCI
mounting bracket.
1. Remove the screw that attaches the PCI bracket shield to the rear of the chassis to remove the
shield. Retain the screw.
2. Insert the PCI card into the PCI slot. Tipping it in the slot while installing it may damage the PCI
card or slot.
3. Use the screw removed in step 1 to secure the PCI card to the chassis.
Replacing the Backup Battery
The lithium battery on the server board powers the RTC for up to 10 years in the absence of power.
When the battery starts to weaken, it loses voltage, and the server settings stored in CMOS RAM in
the RTC (for example, the date and time) may be wrong. Contact your customer service representative or dealer for a list of approved devices.
!
WARNING
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type
recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to manufacturer’s
instructions.
!
ADVARSEL!
Lithiumbatteri - Eksplosionsfare ved fejlagtig håndtering. Udskiftning må kun ske med batteri af samme
fabrikat og type. Levér det brugte batteri tilbage til leverandøren.

BIOS POST Beep Codes
The table below lists the POST error beep codes. Prior to system video initialization, the BIOS uses
these beep codes to inform users of error conditions. The beep code occurs only when a critical error
occurs or when the BIOS fails to boot to the operating system. Please note that not all error conditions are supported by BIOS beep codes.
Table 7. BIOS Post Beep Codes
Number of Beeps Description
1 Refresh failure
2 Parity cannot be reset
3 First 64 Kb memory failure
4 Timer not operational
5 Processor failure (Reserved; not used)

An error or warning condition at boot can result in a series of beeps being issued known as “beep
codes”. These beeps have a code that identifies system or PCI card events. For example, some Intel®
RAID cards have beep codes. Before checking for a system beep code error make sure the PCI card
is not causing the beeping.
