Memory Operating Modes The following memory operating modes are supported: • Independent Channel Mode • Rank Sparing Mode • Mirrored Channel Mode • Lockstep Channel Mode The memory bus operating frequency is always identical for all memory channels. In Mirrored and Lockstep modes, DIMM sockets must be populated with DIMMs of identical size and organization over all channels.

Removing and Installing the Chassis Cover The MAXDATA PLATINUM 2200 IR server chassis must be operated with the top cover in place to ensure proper cooling. You will need to remove the top cover to add or replace components inside the chassis.
Removing and Installing the Front Bezel NOTE When installing the bezel, make sure that the hole for the front panel is on the upper right side. Before installing the bezel, the rack handles must be installed. Removing the Front Bezel 1.
8. Align the holes in the drive to the holes in the drive carrier and attach it to the carrier with the screws that were attached to the plastic retention device. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
Figure 23. Attaching a hot-swap hard disk drive to a drive carrier 9. With the black lever in the fully open position, slide the drive assembly into the chassis. The green latch at the front of the drive carrier must be to the right. Do not push on the black drive carrier lever until the lever begins to close by itself.
1. Lower the front edge of the air duct to engage the two tabs on the fan bulkhead. 2. Carefully push in the two latches on the air duct (A). Push down the air duct into place. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
Removing and Installing the PCI Riser Assembly Removing the PCI Riser Assembly 1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this book. 2. Power down the server and unplug all peripheral devices and the AC power cable. 3.
Make sure that all empty add-in card slots have filler panels installed. 8. Install the PCI riser assembly into the server system. 9. Install the server system cover. 10. Plug all peripheral devices and the AC power cable(s) into the server. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
Installing an I/O Expansion Module 1. Squeeze the sides of the filler panel to disengage it from the server system back panel and remove it (A). 2. Position the module over the server board, fit the front of the module into the back panel slot (B).
3. Press the green latch at the rear of the power supply and pull the power supply from the chassis. Figure 30. Removing a hot-swap power supply Filling Empty Chassis Bays A filler panel, drive blank, or empty drive carrier must be installed into any empty power supply/drive bay. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
Installing Memory The DIMMs are labelled as DIMM_A1 to DIMM_H2 (to DIMM_H3 on the S2600GZ) on the board. Populate the memory channels (A to D for CPU 1, E to H for CPU 2) in ascending order. Begin populating your memory with DIMM_A1. First add a DIMM to the first socket of each of the following memory channels before installing DIMMs in the second and finally in the third socket (S2600GZ only) of a channel.
(A). Orient the processor with the socket so that the processor cutouts match the four orientation posts on the socket (B). Note the location of the golden key at corner of processor (C). Gently insert the processor into the socket. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
CAUTION The underside of the processor has components that may damage the socket pins if installed improperly. The processor must align correctly with the socket opening before installation. Do not drop the processor into the socket! Figure 34. Inserting the processor 11.
5. Locate the jumper block for the serial port. See Figure 4 on page 14. 6. Move the jumper from the default position covering pins 1 and 2 to cover pins 2 and 3. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
Replacing the Backup Battery The lithium battery on the server board powers the RTC for up to 10 years in the absence of power. When the battery starts to weaken, it loses voltage, and the server settings stored in CMOS RAM in the RTC (for example, the date and time) may be wrong.
8. Remove the new lithium battery from its package, and, being careful to observe the correct polarity, insert it in the battery socket. 9. Close the chassis. 10. Run the setup to restore the configuration settings to the RTC. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
These parameters can be changed if the user has adequate security rights. If a value cannot be changed for any reason, the feature’s value field is inaccessible. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...

5. Unplug the power cord(s). 6. Move the jumper back to the default position (covering pins 1 and 2). 7. Close the server chassis. 8. Plug in the power cord(s) and power up the server. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
Humidity Non-operating 90 % relative humidity (non-condensing) at 30 °C. Acoustic noise 7 Bels in sound power for a typical office ambient temperature (18–24 °C). The selection of peripherals may change the noise level. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
Installation Precautions Observe all warnings and cautions in the installation instructions. To avoid injury, be careful of: • Sharp pins on connectors • Sharp pins on printed circuit assemblies • Rough edges and sharp corners on the chassis • Hot components (like processors, voltage regulators, and heat sinks) • Damage to wires that could cause a short circuit Refer computer servicing to qualified technical personnel. MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 2200 IR M8...
Use Only for Intended Applications This server was evaluated as Information Technology Equipment (I.T.E.) for use in offices, homes, schools, computer rooms, and similar locations. The suitability of this product for other applications or environments, (such as medical, industrial, alarm systems, test equipment, etc.) may require further evaluation.
