Chapter 2: Installation Before you install the motherboard, study the coniguration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard its into it. EP2C606-4L/D16 / EP2C602-4L/D16 / EP2C602/D16 / EP2C606-4L / EP2C602-4L / EP2C602 are dual socket motherboards that support Intel® Xeon® E5-2400/1400 Series Processors. Please install a primary processor (BootStrap Processor) into “CPU_BSP1” socket and then install a non-Primary Processor (Application Processors) into “CPU_AP1” socket.
2.3 CPU Installation Load Lever For the installation of Intel 2011-Pin CPU, please follow the steps below. Load Lever Contact Array Socket Body Load Plate 2011-Pin Socket Overview Before you insert the 2011-Pin CPU into the socket, please check if the CPU surface is unclean or if there are any bent pins in the socket. Do not force to insert the CPU into the socket if above situation is found. Otherwise, the CPU will be seriously damaged. Step 1. Open the socket: Step 1-1.
Step 2-2.
