Serverboard Installation

This section explains the fi rst step of physically mounting the X7DCL-3 into the
SC111TQ-560CB chassis. Following the steps in the order given will eliminate
the most common problems encountered in such an installation. To remove the
serverboard, follow the procedure in reverse order.
Installing to the Chassis
1.
Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until the
rails lock into place.
2.
Remove the thumbscrew that secures the chassis cover. Depress the two
release buttons are located on the top cover of the chassis while pushing the
cover away from you until it stops.
3.
You can then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the
inside of the server. (If already installed in a rack, you must fi rst release the
retention screws that secure the unit to the rack.
4.
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.
5.
Carefully mount the serverboard to the serverboard tray by aligning the board
holes with the raised metal standoffs that are visible in the chassis.
6.
Insert screws into all the mounting holes on your serverboard that line up with
the standoffs and tighten until snug (if you screw them in too tight, you might
strip the threads).
Note: Metal screws provide an electrical contact to the serverboard ground to
provide a continuous ground for the system.
