[1] General Information
Read Me First
  1. The Barebone User’s Manual is available for download from our Web site at http://www.tyan.com. Make sure to read all precautions and instructions before you start installing the server system.
  2. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel to avoid the risk of damage to the server system.
  3. Exercise normal ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) procedures during system integration. TYAN/MiTAC recommends wearing gloves and an anti-static wrist strap to avoid possible damage to the equipment.
  4. Current processor socket design places the pins on the motherboard instead of the processor itself. Exercise caution when installing the processors as the manufacturer’s warranty does not cover damage inflicted upon the motherboard, including damage to the CPU sockets.

[3] System Installation

TYAN GC79A-B7132 - System Installation 1

Open the Chassis

Preparing the Chassis

Read normal ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) procedures.

Place your TYAN® Server Chassis on a flat anti-static surface to perform the following integration procedures. Read ESD procedures before reaching inside to install components.

TYAN GC79A-B7132 - System Installation 2

(1) Remove the two screws from the top cover.        (2) Slide and then remove the top cover.


Install the Memory

(1) Unlock the clips.  (2) Insert the memory module.  (3) Lock the clips.

Install the Processor

Shim Concept

XCC carrier

  1. No Shim case

MCC carrier

  1. Shim installed in package carrier to offset the spring deflection.

  2. Visual Indicators

Package Type XCC MCC
Shim NO YES
Carrier code E1A E1B
TE 1-2351052-5 1-2351052-2
FIT WNMEC00-0NNK1-EH WNMEC00-0NNK2-EH
LOTES AZIF0204-P006C AZIF0240-P003C

(1) Align the triangle edge of the carrier with the notch on the edge of the heatsink. Then install the carrier on the bottom of the heatsink and make sure the latches are snapped under the edge of the heatsink.

(2) Align and install the processor on the carrier. Make sure the gold arrow is located in the correct direction.
NOTE: When installing the processor, secure the front side ( A ) first, and following with the middle and rear sides ( B C ).

(3) Remove the CPU cover.

(4) Carefully flip the heatsink assembly. Align the heatsink with the CPU socket by the guide pins. Make also sure that the triangle edge of the carrier is aligned correctly with the triangle mark on the CPU socket. Then place the heatsink assembly onto the top of the CPU socket.

(5) Press down on the retention clips to fix the heatsink assembly to the CPU socket.

(6) To secure the heatsink assembly, use a T30 Security Torx to tighten the screws in a sequential order (1 2 3 4).
NOTE: When disassembling the heatsink, loosen the screws in reverse order (4 3 2 1).

TYAN GC79A-B7132 - System Installation 16 NOTE: A new heatsink comes with pre-applied thermal grease.
Once the heatsink has been removed from the processor, you need to clean the processor and heatsink using an alcohol solvent. Then apply new thermal grease before reinstalling the heatsink.
