  • Page 13: Mounting The Motherboard

    If there are any studs missing, you will know right away since the motherboard will not be able to be securely installed. 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 14: Installing The Memory

    133MHz. For this, PC2100 DDR modules are required. 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 15 Memory Installation Procedure The Tiger i7501X S3022 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 16 • 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, and 2GB Registered ECC PC2100/PC1600 DDR SDRAM memory modules are supported in x4 or x8 configuration. • The Tiger i7501X S3022 supports up to 8GB of memory with 2GB registered DDR modules. http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 17 2.11 – Installing the Processor and Heatsink Your Tiger i7501X S3022 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 18 Note: The CPU shown below is only a representation. It may or may not look exactly like the ones on your motherboard. The following diagram will illustrate how to install the most common heatsinks: Align the heatsink mounting bracket to the holes around the processor socket Insert Black securing peg into bracket holes http://www.TYAN.com...

    Check the parts in the kit: two back-plates and 9 screws. (Four screws for each plate and one spare screw.) The back-plates must be installed prior to installing the motherboard into a chassis. Ensure that the screws have firmly secured the motherboard between the CPU retention bases and the back-plates. http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 21: Attaching Drive Cables

    2.13 – 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. Attaching IDE cables to the IDE connectors is illustrated below: Simply plug in the BLUE END of the IDE cable into the motherboard IDE connector, and the other end(s) into the drive(s).
  • Page 22 Usually signifies that the cable on the drive is on backwards, which is a common issue. Drive activity light is constantly on Reverse the cable at the floppy drive end and try again. http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 23: 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 performing NOTE system hardware changes, to avoid damaging the board or expansion device. http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 24: Connecting External Devices

    The following diagram will detail the ATX port stack for the following board: Tiger i7501X S3022-PP Tiger i7501X S3022 Besides being used primarily to connect printers, the Printer Port is also used for devices such as Zip drive, some external CD-RW drives and or other external devices.

    SRAM instead of in the slow DRAM. Note that the cache is also much smaller than your regular memory: a typical cache size is 512KB, while you may have as much as 4GB of regular memory. http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 41 EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM): also called Flash BIOS, is a ROM chip which can, unlike normal ROM, 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.
  • Page 42 Form factor: an industry term for the size, shape, power supply type, and external connector type of the Personal Computer Board (PCB) or motherboard. The standard form factors are the AT and ATX, although TYAN also makes some Baby-AT and ATX Footprint boards. Global timer: onboard hardware timer, such as the Real-Time Clock (RTC).
  • Page 43 Serial port: called as such because it transmits the eight bits of a byte of data along one wire, and receives data on another single wire (that is, the data is transmitted in serial form, one bit after another). http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 44 ZIF Socket (Zero Insertion Force socket): these sockets make it possible to insert CPUs without damaging the sensitive CPU pins. The CPU is lightly placed in an open ZIF socket, and a lever is pulled down. This shift the processor over and down, guiding into the board and locking it into place. http://www.TYAN.com...
  • Page 45: Appendix Iii: Smdc Information

    Tyan SMDC is not a peripheral card. Unlike regular peripheral card such as AGP card, Network card or SCSI card, SMDC does not require any hardware specific driver. As long as a standby power comes into the system, SMDC will begin looking after the system.
