Motherboard Installation
This section explains the first step of physically mounting the P3TDE6 into
the SC840 chassis. Following the steps in the order given will eliminate the
most common problems encountered in such an installation. To remove the
motherboard, follow the procedure in reverse order.
1.
Access the inside of the 6041G (see Figure 2-5)
First, release the two retention screws that secure the unit to the
rack. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight
out. Next, release the two screws that secure the top cover to the
chassis. Remove the top chassis cover by pushing forward on the
cover recesses until it stops. Lift the cover from the chassis. You
should now have full access to the inside of the server.
2.
Install metal standoffs
With the chassis opened up, the motherboard tray is directly in front
of you. First, check that the location of all the mounting holes on
both the motherboard and the tray match. Refer to Figure 5-1 for
mounting hole locations. Attach metal standoffs to the mounting holes
(as marked #1-13 on Figure 5-1) on the motherboard tray. Make
sure these metal standoffs either click in or are screwed in tightly.
Several square rubber "feet" may be applied to the motherboard tray
to function as shock absorbers. Attach these feet to the small
square outlines on the tray.
3.
Check compatibility of motherboard ports and I/O shield
The P3TDE6 requires a chassis big enough to support a 12" x 13"
motherboard, such as Supermicro's SC840 4U rackmount. Make sure
that the I/O ports on the motherboard properly align with their
respective holes in the I/O shield at the back of the chassis.
•
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides ex-
cellent conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting
fasteners and the motherboard.
Unpacking
The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static electrical
damage. When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is
static protected.
