ERVER 7047AX-TRF/7047AX-72RF User's Manual Serverboard Features At the heart of the SuperWorkstation 7047AX-TRF/7047AX-72RF lies the X9DAX- 7F/iF, a dual processor serverboard based on the Intel C602 chipset. Below are the main features of the X9DAX-7F/iF. (See Figure 1-1 for a block diagram of the chipset).
Chapter 1: Introduction Rear I/O Ports The color-coded I/O ports include one COM port, a VGA (monitor) port, two USB 3.0 ports, four USB 2.0 ports, a dedicated IPMI LAN port and two Gb Ethernet LAN ports. IPMI IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) is a hardware-level interface specification that provides remote access, monitoring and administration for Supermicro workstation platforms.
UPER ERVER 7047AX-TRF/7047AX-72RF User's Manual Control Panel The control panel on the workstation provides you with system monitoring and control.

Decide on a suitable location for setting up and operating the SuperWorkstation 7047AX-TRF/7047AX-72RF. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated.
UPER ERVER 7047AX-TRF/7047AX-72RF User's Manual Preparing for Setup The box your workstation was shipped in may include two sets of rail assemblies, two rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws needed to install the system into the rack (optional parts). Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.
Chapter 2: Workstation Installation • Install the heaviest workstation components on the bottom of the rack first, and then work up. • Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the workstation from power surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure.
UPER ERVER 7047AX-TRF/7047AX-72RF User's Manual Reliable Ground A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack itself should be grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply connec- tions other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of power strips, etc.).
Chapter 2: Workstation Installation Removing the Chassis Feet 1. Place the chassis on its side with the chassis side cover facing upward. 2. Remove the screw holding the chassis foot in place. 3. The foot lock is a tab located in the center of the foot that prevents the foot from sliding.

UPER ERVER 7047AX-TRF/7047AX-72RF User's Manual Control Panel Buttons There are two push-buttons located on the front of the chassis. These are power on/off button and a reset button. Power The main power switch is used to apply or remove power from the power supply to the workstation.
Chapter 3: System Interface NIC1 Indicates network activity on LAN1 when flashing. NIC2 Indicates network activity on LAN2 when flashing. Overheat/Fan Fail When this LED flashes it indicates a fan failure. When continuously on (not flashing) it indicates an overheat condition, which may be caused by cables obstructing the airflow in the system or the ambient room temperature being too warm.
