Page 19: Mounting The Motherboard
Some chassis’ include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are usable, Tyan recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard more securely in place. -
Page 20: Installing The Memory
Critically important is whether you’re using the recommended memory for the current board you have. For this information, please check Tyan’s web site at: www.tyan.com The following diagram shows the types of RAM modules you may encounter depending on your board: http://www.TYAN.com... - Page 21 Memory Installation Procedure The Tiger i7501R S2735 requires that memory modules be installed in pairs. Please refer to the next page for exact details on installing memory modules correctly. When installing memory modules, make sure the modules align properly with the memory socket.
- Page 22 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, and 2GB Registered ECC PC2100/PC1600 DDR SDRAM memory modules are supported in x4 or x8 configuration. • The Tiger i7501R S2735 supports up to 12GB of memory with 2GB (X4) registered DDR modules. • Use ONLY x8 OR x4 type memory modules. Mixing memory types may affect stability.
- Page 23 If you are still unsure whether you are using x4 or x8 memory you can research the memory chip by the SDRAM part numbers, or go to http://www.google.com search for jedec 21-c 4.20.4. http://www.TYAN.com...

Page 24: Installing The Processor And Heatsink
2.23 – Installing the Processor and Heatsink Your Tiger i7501R S2735 supports the latest processor technologies from Intel. Check the following page on TYAN’s website for latest processor support: http://www.Tyan.com The following diagrams will detail how to install your processor(s): The processors you choose to use may not look exactly like the one pictured above, nor will the socket look exactly the same. -
Page 25: Installing Cpu Back-Plates And Retention Modules
NOTE: The back-plates must be installed prior to installing the motherboard into a chassis. (Certain 1U chassis may not require the back-plates.) Align the heatsink mounting bracket to the holes around the processor socket Insert screws into bracket holes http://www.TYAN.com... - Page 26 NOTE: The hexagonal nut MUST be on the viewable side of the CPU back- plate as shown below! After installing the CPU, seat the heatsink between brackets on processor Attach heatsink retaining arms by locking them in the hook as shown below. http://www.TYAN.com...
- Page 27 After you finish installing the heatsink, attach the end wire of the fan (already be attached to the heatsink) to the motherboard. This diagram illustrates how to connect fans onto the motherboard. After you’re finished installing all the fans you can now connect your drives (hard drives, CD-ROM drives, etc.) to your motherboard. http://www.TYAN.com...

Page 28: Attaching Drive Cables
2.25 – Attaching Drive Cables Attaching IDE drive cabling is simple. These cables are “keyed” to only allow them to be connected in the correct manner. Tyan motherboards have two on-board IDE channels, each supporting two drives. The black connector designates the Primary channel, while the white connector designates the Secondary channel. - Page 29 Maybe a bad power supply or drive cable problem. Usually signifies that the cable on the drive is on backwards, which is a Drive activity light is constantly on common issue. Reverse the cable at the floppy drive end and try again. http://www.TYAN.com...

Page 30: Installing Add-In Cards
This allows air to more easily circulate within the chassis, providing improved cooling for all installed devices. YOU MUST unplug the power connector to the motherboard before NOTE performing system hardware changes, to avoid damaging the board or expansion device. http://www.TYAN.com... -
Page 31: Connecting External Devices
Connecting external devices to the motherboard is an easy task. The standard devices you should expect to plug into the motherboard are keyboards, mice, and printer cables.

Page 32: Installing The Power Supply
2.28 – Installing the Power Supply There are two power connectors on your Tiger i7501R S2735. The Tiger i7501R S2735 requires that you have an EPS12V power supply that has a 24-pin and an 8-pin power connector. Please be aware that ATX 2.x, ATX12V and ATXGES power supplies are not compatible with the board and can damage the motherboard and/or CPU(s). -

Page 77: Appendix I: Glossary
Bus: a data pathway. The term is used especially to refer to the connection between the processor and system memory, and between the processor and PCI or ISA local buses. Bus mastering: allows peripheral devices and IDEs to access the system memory without going through the CPU (similar to DMA channels). http://www.TYAN.com... - Page 78 This refresh requirement makes DRAM three to ten times slower than non-recharged RAM such as SRAM. ECC (Error Correction Code or Error Checking and Correcting): allows data to be checked for errors during run-time. Errors can subsequently be corrected at the same time that they’re found. http://www.TYAN.com...
- Page 79 EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM): also called Flash BIOS, is a ROM chip, which can be updated. This allows you to keep up with changes in the BIOS programs without having to buy a new chip. TYAN’s BIOS updates can be found at http://www.TYAN.com EMRL: Embedded RAID Logic.
