Chapter 2: Board Installation

You are now ready to install your motherboard.

How to install our products right… the first time

The first thing you should do is read this user‟s manual. It contains important

information that will make configuration and setup much easier. Here are some precautions you should take when installing your motherboard:

(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the

antistatic bag. Unplug the power from your computer power supply and then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). For the safest conditions, MiTAC recommends wearing a static safety wrist strap.

(2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the

board, or flex the board in any way.

(3) Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips, connectors,

memory modules, and leads.

(4) Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the antistatic

bag that the board was shipped in.

(5) Inspect the board for damage.

The following pages include details on how to install your motherboard into your chassis, as well as installing the processor, memory, disk drives and cables.

Caution!

1. To avoid damaging the motherboard and associated

components, do not use torque force greater than

7kgf/cm (6.09 lb/in) on each mounting screw for

motherboard installation.

2. Do not apply power to the board if it has been damaged.

2.5 Installing the Processor and Heatsink

The types of processors supported by the S5539 are listed in the 1.2 Hardware Specifications section on page 4. Check our website at http://www.tyan.com for the latest list of validated Intel® processors for this specific motherboard.

NOTE: MiTAC is not liable for damage as a result of operating an

unsupported configuration.

Processor Installation (for Intel Broadwell-DE CPU)

When you receive the motherboard, both Intel® Broadwell-D processors and heat sinks have been installed in advance in the factory. Please note that the motherboard may not look exactly like the one you purchased. Therefore, the illustrations should be held for your reference only.

Heat sink Installation

The CPU heat sink will ensure that the processor do not overheat and continue to operate at maximum performance for as long as you own them. An overheated processor is dangerous to the motherboard. The processors will overheat within seconds, enter thermal protection, and shut down if heat sinks are not installed.

NOTE：The heat sink also has been preinstalled, so the S5539 motherboard when

you received has been installed with CPU and heat sink. For the safest method of installation and information on choosing the appropriate heat sink, using heat sinks validated by Intel®. Please refer to the Intel® website:

http://www.intel.com

Page 19

2.6 Tips on Installing Motherboard in Chassis

Before installing your motherboard, make sure your chassis has the necessary motherboard support studs installed. These studs are usually metal and are gold in color. Usually, the chassis manufacturer will pre-install the support studs. If you are unsure of stud placement, simply lay the motherboard inside the chassis and align the screw holes of the motherboard to the studs inside the case. If there are any studs missing, you will know right away since the motherboard will not be able to be securely installed.

Note: Be especially careful to look for extra stand-offs. If there are any stand-offs

present that are not aligned with a mounting hole on the motherboard, it will likely short components on the back of the motherboard when installed. This will cause malfunction and/or damage to your motherboard.

Page 20

http://www.tyan.com

Some chassis include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are usable, MiTAC recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard more securely in place.

Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and how they should be installed.

Page 21

http://www.tyan.com

2.7 Installing the Memory

Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with the motherboard and processor. Check the TYAN Web site at http://www.tyan.com for details of the type of memory recommended for your motherboard.

 This platform supports four (2+2) DDR4-DIMM 2400 (by Intel CPU type) slots,

two Memory channels

Registered DDR4 Up to 64GB/ Unregistered DDR4 Up to 128GB,

 U-DDR4 1.2V data transfer rates of 1600,1866 and 2133 MT/s are supported  UDIMM/RDIMM are supported  All installed memory will automatically be detected. No jumpers or settings

need to be changed for memory detection.

 All memory must be of the same type and density.

Memory Installation Procedure

Follow these instructions to install memory modules into the S5539.

1. Unlock a DIMM socket by Press the retaining clip outwardly in the following illustration.

2. Align the memory module with the socket，such that the DIMM NOTCH match the KEY SLOT on the socket.

3. Seat the module firmly into the socket by gently pressing down until it sits flush with the socket. The locking levers pop up into place.

2.8 Attaching Drive Cables

Attaching SATA Cables

The following illustrates how to make a SATA Cable connection. If you are in need of SATA/SAS cables or power adapters please contact your local sales representative.

1. SATA drive cable connection

2. SATA drive power connection

3. SATA cable motherboard connector

4. SATA drive power adapter

Page 26

http://www.tyan.com

2.9 Installing Add-In Cards

Before installing add-in cards, it‟s helpful to know if they are fully compatible with your motherboard. For this reason, we‟ve provided the diagrams below, showing

the slots that may appear on your motherboard.

1.Slot OCP1/2 (J8/J15): OCP Mezzanine card connector

2. PCI-e#1: PCI-E Gen3.0x8 slot (x8 link) (open-end type)

3. PCIE#2: PCI-E Gen2.0x4 slot (x4 link) (open-end type)

Simply find the appropriate slot for your add-in card and insert the card firmly. Do not force any add-in cards into any slots if they do not seat in place. It is better to try another slot or return the faulty card rather than damaging both the motherboard and the add-in card.

TIP: It‟s a good practice to install add-in cards in a staggered manner rather than making them directly adjacent to each other. Doing so allows air to circulate within the chassis more easily, thus improving cooling for all installed devices.

NOTE: You must always unplug the power connector from the motherboard

before performing system hardware changes to avoid damaging the board or expansion device.

2.12 Finishing Up

Congratulations on making it this far! You have finished setting up the hardware aspect of your computer. Before closing up your chassis, make sure that all cables and wires are connected properly, especially SATA cables and most importantly, jumpers. You may have difficulty powering on your system if the motherboard jumpers are not set correctly. In the rare circumstance that you have experienced difficulty, you can find help by asking your vendor for assistance. If they are not available for assistance, please find

setup information and documentation online at our website or by calling your vendor‟s

support line.

Chapter 3: BIOS Setup

3.1 About the BIOS

The BIOS is the basic input/output system, the firmware on the motherboard that enables your hardware to interface with your software. The BIOS determines what a computer can do without accessing programs from a disk. The BIOS contains all the code required to control the keyboard, display screen, disk drives, serial communications, and a number of miscellaneous functions. This chapter describes the various BIOS settings that can be used to configure your system.

The BIOS section of this manual is subject to change without notice and is provided for reference purposes only. The settings and configurations of the BIOS are current at the time of print and are subject to change, and therefore may not match exactly what is displayed on screen.

This section describes the BIOS setup program. The setup program lets you modify basic configuration settings. The settings are then stored in a dedicated, batterybacked memory (called NVRAM) that retains the information even when the power is turned off.

To start the BIOS setup utility:

1. Turn on or reboot your system.

2. Press <F2> or <Del> during POST (<Tab> on remote console) to start the

BIOS setup utility.

3.1.1 Setup Basics

The table below shows how to navigate in the setup program using the keyboard.

3.1.2 Getting Help

Pressing [F1] will display a small help window that describes the appropriate keys to use and the possible selections for the highlighted item. To exit the Help Window, press [ESC] or the [Enter] key again.

3.1.3 In Case of Problems

If you have trouble booting your computer after making and saving the changes with the BIOS setup program, you can restart the computer by holding the power button down until the computer shuts off (usually within 4 seconds); resetting by pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL; or clearing the CMOS. The best advice is to only alter settings that you thoroughly understand. In particular, do not change settings in the Chipset section unless you are absolutely sure of what you are doing. The Chipset defaults have been carefully chosen either by MiTAC or your system manufacturer for best performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small change to the Chipset setup options may cause the system to become unstable or unusable.

3.1.4 Setup Variations

Not all systems have the same BIOS setup layout or options. While the basic look and function of the BIOS setup remains more or less the same for most systems, the appearance of your Setup screen may differ from the charts shown in this section. Each system design and chipset combination requires a custom configuration. In addition, the final appearance of the Setup program depends on the system designer. Your system designer may decide that certain items should not be available for user configuration, and remove them from the BIOS setup program.

NOTE: The following pages provide the details of BIOS menu. Please be aware that

the BIOS menus are continually changing due to continual BIOS updates over the product lifespan of the motherboard. The BIOS menus provided are current as of the date when this manual was written. Please visit TYAN‟s website at

http://www.tyan.com for information on BIOS updates available for this specific

motherboard.
