Safety Instructions Safety Instructions Before You Begin Before handling the product, read the instructions and safety guidelines on the following pages to prevent damage to the product and to ensure your own personal safety. Refer to the “Advisories” section in the Preface for advisory conventions used in this user’s guide, including the distinction between Warnings, Cautions, Important Notes, and Notes. Always use caution when handling/operating a computer.
Safety Instructions 3. 4. Follow the guidelines provided in “Preventing Electrostatic Discharge” on the following page. Disconnect any telephone or telecommunications lines from the computer. In addition, take note of these safety guidelines when appropriate: To help avoid possible damage to system boards, wait five seconds after turning off the computer before removing a component, removing a system board, or disconnecting a peripheral device from the computer.
Safety Instructions or packaging. Handle all sensitive components at an ESD workstation. If possible, use antistatic floor pads and workbench pads. Handle components and boards with care. Don’t touch the components or contacts on a board. Hold a board by its edges or by its metal mounting bracket. Do not handle or store system boards near strong electrostatic, electromagnetic, magnetic, or radioactive fields.
Preface Preface How to Use This Guide This guide is designed to be used as step-by-step instructions for installation, and as a reference for operation, troubleshooting, and upgrades. NOTE Driver downloads and additional information are available under Downloads on our web site: www.quanmax.com. Unpacking When unpacking, follow these steps: 1. After opening the box, save it and the packing material for possible future shipment. 2. Remove all items from the box.
Preface area (domestic environment) is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference (take adequate measures) at their own expense. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Quanmax could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Preface date of purchase. To reduce risk of damage, returns of product must be in a Quanmax shipping container. If the original container has been lost or damaged, new shipping containers may be obtained from Quanmax Customer Service at a nominal cost. Quanmax owns all parts removed from repaired products. Quanmax uses new and reconditioned parts made by various manufacturers in performing warranty repairs and building replacement products.
Preface properties as electrical resistance and thermal conductivity. Extreme moisture buildup inside the system can result in electrical shorts, which can cause serious damage to the system. Buildings in which climate is controlled usually maintain an acceptable level of humidity for system equipment. However, if a system is located in an unusually humid location, a dehumidifier can be used to maintain the humidity within an acceptable range.
Preface Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems offer the most complete protection against variations on power because they use battery power to keep the server running when AC power is lost. The battery is charged by the AC power while it is available, so when AC power is lost, the battery can provide power to the system for a limited amount of time, depending on the UPS system.

Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Hardware Settings Overview This chapter provides the definitions and locations of jumpers, headers, and connectors. Jumpers The product has several jumpers which must be properly configured to ensure correct operation. Figure 3 Jumper Connector For a three-pin jumper (see Figure 3), the jumper setting is designated “1-2” when the jumper connects pins 1 and 2. The jumper setting is designated “2-3” when pins 2 and 3 are connected and so on.
Chapter 2 Jumper Settings and Pin Definitions For jumper and connector locations, please refer to the diagrams below.
Chapter 2 Jumper Settings To ensure correct system configuration, the following section describes how to set the jumpers to enable/disable or change functions. For jumper descriptions, please refer to the table below.
