The product name and revision number are both printed on the product itself. Manual revisions are released for each product design represented by the digit before and after the period of the manual revision number. Manual updates are represented by the third digit in the manual revision number. [. . . ] All the six hook (three each on the top and bottom) of the cover must properly fit the designated holes. Slide the chassis cover for about half an inch towards the front until it snaps in place. Tighten the thumb screws to secure the cover. 1 3 2 There are six (6) chassis guide hooks located on the upper side and lower side of the chassis cover, make sure all six are aligned properly in place. User's Manual 2-3 2. 2 Motherboard placement Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits into it. The PR-DLS533 uses the extended ATX form factor that measures 12 inches x 13 inches (30. 5 x 33 cm). Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components. Placement direction When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the chassis in the correct orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis as indicated in the image below. Place this side towards the rear of the chassis Motherboard Screws Place thirteen (13) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis. Do not overtighten the screws!Doing so may damage the motherboard. 2-4 ASUS AP1700 2. 3 Installing the Central Processing Unit (CPU) In the event of conflict between this instruction and other references cited herein, instructions in this system manual takes precedence. 2. 3. 1 Overview The motherboard comes with dual surface mount 604-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) sockets. The sockets are designed for the Intel Xeon Processor in the 604-pin package with 512KB L2 cache. The processor includes the Intel® NetBurstTM micro-architecture that features the hyperthreading technology, rapid execution engine, 533/400MHz system bus, and execution trace cache. Together, these attributes improve system performance by allowing higher core frequencies, faster execution of integer instructions, and data transfer rate of up to 4. 26GB/s. Prestonia 400Mhz FSB Gold Arrow Prestonia 533Mhz FSB PR-DLS PR-DLS533 Socket 604 Gold Arrow Note in the illustration that the CPU has a gold triangular mark on one corner. This mark indicates the processor Pin 1 that should match a specific corner of the CPU socket. Incorrect installation of the CPU into the socket may bend the pins and severely damage the CPU!Hardware monitoring errors may occur if you fail to plug the fan cable. 5. If you wish to install two CPUs, repeat the same steps for CPU socket 2. 6. Use CPUFAN2 connector for the second CPU heatsink and fan assembly cable. 2-8 ASUS AP1700 2. 4 System memory 2. 4. 1 Overview The motherboard comes with six Double Data Rate (DDR) Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) sockets. These sockets support up to 12GB system memory using 184-pin registered PC2100/1600 DIMMs with Serial Presence Detect (SPD) and Error Check and Correction (ECC). 104 Pins 80 Pins DDRA1 DDRA2 DDRB1 DDRB2 DDRC1 DDRC2 PR-DLS533 PR-DLS533 184-Pin DDR DIMM Sockets A DDR DIMM is keyed with a notch so that it fits in only one direction. DO NOT force a DIMM into a socket to avoid damaging the DIMM. The DDR SDRAM technology evolved from the mainstream PC66, PC100, PC133 memory known as Single Data Rate (SDR) SDRAM. DDR memory however, has the ability to perform two data operations in one clock cycle, thus providing twice the throughput of SDR memory. For example, a 200MHz DDR DIMM will support a 100MHz memory bus, and a 266MHz DDR DIMM will support a 133MHz memory bus. DDR Data Transfer Rate 266MHz 200MHz DDR Base Frequency 133MHz 100MHz A DDR DIMM has the same physical dimensions as an SDR DIMM, but it has a 184-pin footprint compared to the 168-pin of the SDR DIMM. Also, a DDR DIMM is single notched while an SDR DIMM is double notched. Therefore, a DDR DIMM is not backward compatible with SDR, and should be installed only in a socket specially designed for DDR DIMMs. User's Manual 2-9 2. 4. 2 Memory Configurations The motherboard supports system memory of up to 12GB in a two-way interleaved configuration. As a rule, this configuration requires that you install identical DDR DIMMs (exactly the same type and size) in pairs for optimum performance. For example, if you installed a 512MB module into DDRA1, you must install the same type of 512MB module into DDRA2. [. . . ] Only one power module is necessary for powering the server, in case two power supply modules are installed, the task of providing power to the server is shared. To remove the redundant power supply module, follow these steps. Pull on the handle while pressing down the rubber lever.
