    NOTE: MITAC TYAN is not liable for damage as a result of operating an unsupported configuration. Processor Installation (LGA1151) Follow the steps below to install the processors and heat sinks. Please note that the illustrations are based on LGA1151 CPU socket which may not look exactly like the motherboard you purchased.

  • Page 30: Tips On Installing Motherboard In Chassis

    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. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 31 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. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 32: Installing The Memory

    2.9 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 details of the type of memory recommended for your motherboard.  This platform supports 4 DDR4 slots ...

  • Page 34 Memory Installation Procedure Follow these instructions to install memory modules into the S5556. Unlock the clips as shown in the illustration. Insert the memory module firmly into the socket by gently pressing down until it sits flush with the socket.
  • Page 35: Attaching Drive Cables

    If you are in need of SATA/SAS cables or power adapters please contact your place of purchase. The following pictures illustrate how to connect an SATA drive. 1. SATA drive cable connection 2. SATA drive power connection 3. SATA cable motherboard connector 4. SATA drive power adapter http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 36: Installing Add-In Cards

    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 to the motherboard before performing system hardware changes to avoid damaging the board or expansion device. http://www.tyan.com...
