This chapter covers the steps required to install the X10DRL-i serverboard into the
SC813MFTQ-400CB/R400CB chassis, connect the data and power cables and
install add-on cards. All serverboard jumpers and connections are also described.
A layout and quick reference chart are included in this chapter for your reference.
Remember to completely close the chassis when you have finished working with
the serverboard to better cool and protect the system.

Handling the Serverboard
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To prevent
damage to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very
carefully (see previous chapter). To prevent the X10DRL-i serverboard from bend-
ing, keep one hand under the center of the board to support it when handling. The
following measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from electric
static discharge.
Precautions
•
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent Electrostatic Discharge
(ESD).
•
Touch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic
bag.
•
Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,
memory modules or gold contacts.
•
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
•
Put the serverboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic
bags when not in use.
•
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the serverboard.
