guidelines in the equipment documentation.

Observe all warnings on the product and in the operating instructions. To
reduce the risk of bodily injury, electric shock, fire and damage to the
equipment, observe all precautions included in this guide.

You must become familiar with the safety information in this guide before
you install, operate, or service TYAN products.

Symbols on Equipment

Caution. This symbol indicates a potential

hazard. The potential for injury exists if
cautions are not observed. Consult equipment
documentation for specific details.

Warning. This symbol indicates the presence
of hazardous energy circuits or electric shock
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified

General Precautions

· Follow all caution and warning instructions marked on the equipment and
explained in the accompanying equipment documentation.



Machine Room Environment

 · Make sure that the area in which you install the system is properly

ventilated and climate-controlled.

8

http://www.tyan.com

· Ensure that the voltage and frequency of your power source match the
voltage and frequency inscribed on the electrical rating label of the
equipment.

· Do not install the system in or near a plenum, air duct, radiator, or heat
register.

· Never use the product in a wet location.

Equipment Chassis

· Do not block or cover the openings to the system.

· Never push objects of any kind through openings in the equipment.

Dangerous voltages might be present.

· Conductive foreign objects can produce a short circuit and cause fire,
electric shock, or damage to your equipment.

· Lift equipment using both hands and with your knees bent.

Equipment Racks

To avoid injury or damage to the equipment:

· Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines
for manual materials handling.

· Do not attempt to move a rack by yourself; a minimum of two people are
needed to move a rack.

· Do not attempt to move a fully loaded rack. Remove equipment from the
rack before moving it.

· Do not attempt to move a rack on an incline that is greater than 10 degrees
from the horizontal.

· Make sure the rack is properly secured to the floor or ceiling.

· Make sure the stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack

installation.

· Make sure racks are coupled together if it is a multiple-rack installation.

· Make sure the rack is level and stable before installing an appliance in the

rack.

· Make sure the leveling jacks are extended to the floor.

9

http://www.tyan.com

· Make sure the full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.

· Always load the rack from the bottom up. Load the heaviest component in

the rack first.

· Make sure the rack is level and stable before pulling a component out of the
rack.

· Make sure only one component is extended at a time. A rack might become
unstable if more than one component is extended.

To avoid damage to the equipment:

· The rack width and depth must allow for proper serviceability and cable
management.

· Ensure that there is adequate airflow in the rack. Improper installation or
restricted airflow can damage the equipment.

· The rack cannot have solid or restricted airflow doors. You must use a
mesh door on the front and back of the rack or remove the doors to ensure
adequate air flow to the system.

· If you install the Model in a rack, do not place equipment on top of the unit.
It will cause restricted airflow and might cause damage to the equipment.

·

Make sure the product is properly matted with the rails. Products that are

improperly matted with the rails might be unstable.

·

Verify that the AC power supply branch circuit that provides power to the

rack is not overloaded. This will reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or
damage to the equipment. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent
of the branch circuit rating. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction
over your facility wiring and installation requirements.

Equipment Power Cords

· Use only the power cords and power supply units provided with your
system. The system might have one or more power cords.

· Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily
accessible at all times.

· In all European electrical environments, you must ground the Green/Yellow
tab on the power cord. If you do not ground the Green/Yellow tab, it can
cause an electrical shock due to high leakage currents.

10

http://www.tyan.com

·

Do not place objects on AC power cords or cables. Arrange them so that no

one might accidentally step on or trip over them.

· Do not pull on a cord or cable. When unplugging from the electrical outlet,
grasp the cord by the plug.

· To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect all power cords before
servicing the appliance.

Equipment Batteries

· The system battery contains lithium manganese dioxide. If the battery pack
is not handled properly, there is risk of fire and burns.

· Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, or dispose of
the battery in fire or water.

· Do not expose the battery to temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F).

· The system battery is not replaceable. If the battery is replaced by an

incorrect type, there is danger of explosion. Replace the battery only with a
spare designated for your product.

· Do not attempt to recharge the battery.

· Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions of the manufacturer.

Do not dispose of batteries with the general household waste. To forward
them to recycling or proper disposal, use the public collection system or return
them to TYAN, your authorized TYAN partner, or their agents.

Equipment Modifications

· Do not make mechanical modifications to the system. TYAN is not
responsible for the regulatory compliance of TYAN equipment that has been
modified.

Chapter 2: Setting Up

2.0.1 Before you Begin

This chapter explains how to install the CPUs, CPU heatsinks, memory modules,
and hard drives. Instructions on inserting add on
cards are also given.

2.0.2 Work Area

Make sure you have a stable, clean working environment. Dust and dirt can get into
components and cause malfunctions. Use containers to keep small components
separated. Putting all small components in separate containers prevents them from
becoming lost. Adequate lighting and proper tools can prevent you from accidentally
damaging the internal components.

2.0.3 Tools

The following procedures require only a few tools, including the following:

 A cross head (Phillips) screwdriver

 A grounding strap or an anti-static pad

Most of the electrical and mechanical connections can be disconnected with your
hands. It is recommended that you do not use pliers to remove connectors as it may
damage the soft metal or plastic parts of the connectors.

http://www.tyan.com

30

2.0.4 Precautions

Components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by discharges of static
electricity. Working on a system that is connected to a power supply can be
extremely dangerous. Follow the guidelines below to avoid damage to GT24-B8226
or injury to yourself.

 Ground yourself properly before removing the top cover of the

system. Unplug the power from the power supply and then touch a
safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply
case). If available, wear a grounded wrist strap. Alternatively,
discharge any static electricity by touching the bare metal chassis
of the unit case, or the bare metal body of any other grounded
appliance.

 Avoid touching motherboard components, IC chips, connectors,

memory modules, and leads.

 The motherboard is pre-installed in the system. When removing

the motherboard, always place it on a grounded anti-static surface
until you are ready to reinstall it.

 Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do not touch the

components on the board unless it is necessary to do so. Do not
flex or stress circuit boards.

 Leave all components inside the static-proof packaging that they

ship with until they are ready for installation.

 After replacing optional devices, make sure all screws, springs, or

other small parts are in place and are not left loose inside the case.
Metallic parts or metal flakes can cause electrical shorts.

NOTE: All connectors are keyed to only attach one way.

All use the correct screw size as indicated in the procedures.

Appendix III: Technical Support

If a problem arises with your system, you should first turn to your dealer for direct
support. Your system has most likely been configured or designed by them and they
should have the best idea of what hardware and software your system contains.
Hence, they should be of the most assistance for you. Furthermore, if you purchased
your system from a dealer near you, take the system to them directly to have it
serviced instead of attempting to do so yourself (which can have expensive
consequence).

If these options are not available for you then MiTAC International Corporation can
help. Besides designing innovative and quality products for over a decade, MiTAC
has continuously offered customers service beyond their expectations. TYAN’s
website (http://www.tyan.com) provides easy-to-access resources such as in-depth

productive as possible. MiTAC also ranks high for its commitment to fast and friendly
customer support through email. By offering plenty of options for users, MiTAC
serves multiple market segments with the industry’s most competitive services to
