CAUTION The system can be used anywhere the temperature is suitable for people. However, rooms with humidity over 70%, and dusty or dirty areas are not appropriate. In addition, do not expose the server to any temperatures over +30°C or under +10°C. ! CAUTION For proper cooling and airflow, operate the system only with the chassis covers installed. ! CAUTION Make sure that the cables connecting the server to peripheral devices are not tight. ! CAUTION Make sure that all power and connection cables are positioned so that they are not trip hazards. ! CAUTION When you save data to your server`s hard disks or to a floppy disk, they are stored as magnetic information on the media. Make sure that they are not damaged by magnetic or electromagnetic fields. ! CAUTION Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices should be placed on the same surface as the server. This is especially important for impact printers whose vibrations could damage the hard disk. ! CAUTION Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result. ! CAUTION Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in chapter 3 only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground - any unpainted metal surface - on your server when handling parts. ! ATTENTION In order to fully separate the server from current, the power cord must be removed from the wall outlet. MAXDATA PLATINUM 300 IR M7 5 System Access Warnings ! CAUTION To avoid personal injury or property damage, the following safety instructions apply whenever accessing the inside of the product: · · · · · · · · Turn off all peripheral devices connected to this product. Turn off the system by pressing the power button to off. Disconnect the AC power by unplugging all AC power cords from the system or wall outlet. Disconnect all cables and telecommunication lines that are connected to the system. Retain all screws or other fasteners when removing access cover(s). Upon completion of accessing inside the product, refasten access cover with original screws or fasteners. Do not access the inside of the power supply. There are no serviceable parts in the power supply. Return to manufacturer for servicing. Power down the server and disconnect all power cords before adding or replacing any non hotplug component. When replacing a hot-plug power supply, unplug the power cord to the power supply being replaced before removing the power supply from the server. ! CAUTION If the server has been running, any installed processor(s) and heat sink(s) may be hot. Unless you are adding or removing a hot-plug component, allow the system to cool before opening the covers. To avoid the possibility of coming into contact with hot component(s) during a hotplug installation, be careful when removing or installing the hot-plug component(s). ! CAUTION To avoid injury do not contact moving fan blades. If your system is supplied with a guard over the fan, do not operate the system without the fan guard in place. Rack Mount Warnings The equipment rack must be anchored to an unmovable support to prevent it from tipping when a server or piece of equipment is extended from it. The equipment rack must be installed according to the rack manufacturer`s instructions. Install equipment in the rack from the bottom up, with the heaviest equipment at the bottom of the rack. Extend only one piece of equipment from the rack at a time. You are responsible for installing a main power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire unit, not just to the server(s). To avoid risk of potential electric shock, a proper safety ground must be implemented for the rack and each piece of equipment installed in it. 6 Setting up the System Powering up the System At the front of the case, you can find the neccessary controls like power button, reset button and the HDD LEDs. Press the power button one time briefly in order to boot the server. DVD Figure 1. Front View A. B. C. D. E.

You can run BIOS Setup with or without an operating system being present. Starting Setup You can enter and start BIOS Setup under several conditions: · · When you turn on the server, after POST completes the memory test When you have moved the CMOS jumper on the server board to the "Clear CMOS" position (enabled) In the two conditions listed above, during the Power On Self Test (POST), you will see this prompt: Press to enter SETUP In a third condition, when CMOS/NVRAM has been corrupted, you will see other prompts but not the prompt: Warning: CMOS checksum invalid Warning: CMOS time and date not set In this condition, the BIOS will load default values for CMOS and attempt to boot. If You Cannot Access Setup If you are not able to access BIOS Setup, you might need to clear the CMOS memory. For instructions on clearing the CMOS, see "Clearing the CMOS". Setup Menus Each BIOS Setup menu page contains a number of features. Except for those features that are provided only to display automatically configured information, each feature is associated with a value field that contains user-selectable parameters. These parameters can be changed if the user has adequate security rights. If a value cannot be changed for any reason, the feature's value field is inaccessible. MAXDATA PLATINUM 300 IR M7 19 Table 6 describes the keyboard commands you can use in the BIOS Setup menus. Table 6. Keyboard Commands Press Description Help - Pressing F1 on any menu invokes the general Help window. The left and right arrow keys are used to move between the major menu pages. The keys have no affect if a sub menu or pick list is displayed. Select Item up - The up arrow is used to select the previous value in a menu item's option list, or a value field pick list. Pressing the Enter key activates the selected item. Select Item down - The down arrow is used to select the next value in a menu item's option list, or a value field pick list. Pressing the Enter key activates the selected item. Change Value - The minus key or the F5 function key is used to change the value of the current item to the previous value. This key scrolls through the values in the associated pick list without displaying the full list. Change Value - The plus key or the F6 function key is used to change the value of the current menu item to the next value. This key scrolls through the values in the associated pick list without displaying the full list. On 106-key Japanese keyboards, the plus key has a different scan code than the plus key on the other keyboard, but it has the same effect. Execute Command - The Enter key is used to activate submenus when the selected feature is a sub menu, or to display a pick list if a selected feature has a value field, or to select a sub-field for multi-valued features like time and date. If a pick list is displayed, the Enter key will undo the pick list, and allow another selection in the parent menu. Exit - The ESC key provides a mechanism for backing out of any field. This key will undo the pressing of the Enter key. When the ESC key is pressed while editing any field or selecting features of a menu, the parent menu is re-entered. When the ESC key is pressed in any sub menu, the parent menu is re-entered. When the ESC key is pressed in any major menu, the exit confirmation window is displayed and the user is asked whether changes can be discarded. Setup Defaults - Pressing F9 causes the following to appear: F5/- F6/+ Setup Confirmation [Yes] [No] Load default configuration now? If "Yes" is selected and the Enter key is pressed, all Setup fields are set to their default values. If "No" is selected and the Enter key is pressed, or if the ESC key is pressed, the user is returned to where they were before F9 was pressed without affecting any existing field values. Save and Exit - Pressing F10 causes the following message to appear: Setup Confirmation [Yes] [No] Save Configuration changes and exit now? If "Yes" is selected and the Enter key is pressed, all changes are saved and Setup is exited. If "No" is selected and the Enter key is pressed, or the ESC key is pressed, the user is returned to where they were before F10 was pressed without affecting any existing values. 20 Server Utilities
