Chapter 5
Advanced Serverboard Setup
This chapter covers the steps required to install the X9DA7/X9DAi serverboard
into the chassis, connect the data and power cables and install add-on cards. All
serverboard jumpers and connections are also described. A layout and quick refer-
ence chart are included in this chapter for your reference. Remember to completely
close the chassis when you have fi nished working with the serverboard to better
cool and protect the system.
5-1 Handling the Serverboard
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To prevent dam-
age to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very carefully
(see previous chapter). To prevent the serverboard from bending, keep one hand
under the center of the board to support it when handling. The following measures
are generally suffi cient to protect your equipment from electric static discharge.
Precautions
•
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent Electrostatic Discharge.
•
Touch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic
bag.
•
Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,
memory modules or gold contacts.
•
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
•
Put the serverboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic
bags when not in use.
•
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the serverboard.
