  • Page 25: Chapter 4 System Safety

    Electrical Safety Precautions Note: power should always be disconnected before perform- ing any service on the system. Basic electrical safety precautions should be followed to protect yourself from harm and the SuperServer 5035B-T from damage: • Be aware of the locations of the power on/off switch on the chassis as well as the room's emergency power-off switch, disconnection switch or electrical outlet.
  • Page 26: General Safety Precautions

    UPER ERVER 5035B-T User's Manual • Serverboard Battery: CAUTION - There is a danger of explosion if the onboard battery is installed upside down, which will reverse its polarites (see Figure 4-1). This battery must be replaced only with the same or an equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
  • Page 27: Esd Precautions

    • After accessing the inside of the system, close the system back up and secure it to the rack unit with the retention screws after ensuring that all connections have been made. ESD Precautions Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is generated by two objects with different electrical charges coming into contact with each other.
  • Page 28: Operating Precautions

    UPER ERVER 5035B-T User's Manual Operating Precautions Care must be taken to assure that the chassis cover is in place when the 5035B-T is operating to assure proper cooling. Out of warranty damage to the system can occur if this practice is not strictly followed. Figure 4-1.
  • Page 29: Chapter 5 Advanced Serverboard Setup

    Advanced Serverboard Setup This chapter covers the steps required to install the C2SBX serverboard into the chassis, connect the data and power cables and install add-on cards. All serverboard jumpers and connections are also described. A layout and quick refer- ence chart are included in this chapter for your reference.
  • Page 30: Unpacking

    The C2SBX requires a chassis big enough to support a 12" x 9.6" serverboard, such as Supermicro's SC733TQ-465. Make sure that the I/O ports on the serverboard align properly with their respective holes in the I/O shield at the back of the chassis.
  • Page 31: Connecting Cables

    Connecting Cables Now that the serverboard is installed, the next step is to connect the cables to the board. These include the data (ribbon) cables for the peripherals and control panel and the power cables.

  • Page 33: Installing The Processor And Heat Sink

    Installing the Processor and Heat Sink Avoid placing direct pressure to the top of the processor package. Always remove the power cord fi rst before adding, removing or changing any hardware components. Notes • Install the serverboard into the chassis before you install the CPU heat sink and fan.
  • Page 34 uper orkstation 5035B-T User's Manual 3. Locate Pin 1 on the CPU socket. (Pin 1 is closest to the notched corner of the housing.) Please note that a North key and a South key (notches) are located at opposite sides of the CPU housing. 4.
  • Page 35 8. If the CPU is properly installed into the socket, the black plastic cover will be automatically released from the load plate when the lever is pushed into the hook. Remove the cover from the motherboard. Note: Keep the plastic cap. If you need to ship the motherboard, the CPU must have the plastic cap properly installed to protect the CPU pins.
  • Page 36: Installing The Heat Sink

    uper orkstation 5035B-T User's Manual Installing the Heat Sink Locate the CPU fan on the mother- board. (Refer to the layout on the right for the CPU fan location.) Position the heat sink in such a way that the heat sink fan wires are closest to the CPU fan and are not interfering with other components.
  • Page 37: Removing The Heat Sink

    Installing Memory CAUTION! Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to prevent any possible damage. Note: Check the Supermicro web site for recommended memory modules. DIMM Installation Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with DIMM1A.
  • Page 38 uper orkstation 5035B-T User's Manual Notes: • Due to the OS limitations, some operating systems may not show more than 4 GB of memory. • Due to allocating memory to system devices, memory remaining available for operational use will be reduced when 4 GB of SDRAM is used. The reduction in memory availability is disproportional.
  • Page 39: Adding Pci Add-On Cards

    Adding PCI Add-On Cards The 5035B-T can accommodate standard size add-on cards in all slots on the C2SBX serverboard. Installing an Add-on Card Begin by removing the PCI slot shield for the slot you wish to populate. Fully seat the card into the riser card slot, pushing down with your thumbs evenly on both sides of the card.
