MF 7MAXDATA FUSION 6000 ISetting up the System
1 Setting up the System
Workstation Position
Please take note of the following criteria for creating a practical and safe workplace when setting up
your computer:
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 workstation to any temperatures over +35 °C or under +10 °C.
Make sure that the cables connecting the workstation to peripheral devices are not tight.
Make sure that all power and connection cables are positioned so that they are not trip
hazards.
When you save data to your workstation‘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.
Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices
should be placed on the same surface as the workstation. This is especially important for
impact printers whose vibrations could damage the hard disk.
ATTENTION
In order to fully separate the workstation from current, the power cord must be removed from the
wall outlet.
ATTENTION
To ensure stability, the floor stands must be turned outwards.

Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Support
 NOTE
Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port might not meet FCC Class
B requirements, even if no device or a low-speed USB device is attached to the cable. Use a shielded
cable that meets the requirements for a full-speed USB device.
The board supports up to eight USB 2.0 ports via ICH6-R; four ports routed to the back panel and
four routed to two internal USB 2.0 headers. USB 2.0 ports are backward compatible with USB 1.1
devices. USB 1.1 devices will function normally at USB 1.1 speeds.
USB 2.0 support requires both an operating system and drivers that fully support USB 2.0 transfer
rates. Disabling Hi-Speed USB in BIOS reverts all USB 2.0 ports to USB 1.1 operation. This may be
required to accommodate operating systems that do not support USB 2.0.

14 15MAXDATA FUSION 6000 IBoard Features
14 15MAXDATA FUSION 6000 IBoard Features
Enhanced IDE Interface
The ICH6-R’s IDE interface handles the exchange of information between the processor and peripheral
devices like hard disks, CD-ROM drives, and Iomega Zip drives inside the computer. The interface
supports:
• Up to two IDE devices (such as hard drives)
• ATAPI-style devices (such as CD-ROM drives)
• Older PIO Mode devices
• Ultra DMA-33 and ATA-66/100 protocols
• Laser Servo (LS-120) drives
Serial ATA
The board supports four Serial ATA channels via the ICH6-R, connecting one device per channel in
either a RAID or non-RAID configuration.
Expandability
The board supports the following:
• One PCI Express x16 add-in card
• Two PCI Express x1 add-in cards
• Four PCI bus add-in cards
BIOS
The BIOS provides the Power-On Self-Test (POST), the BIOS Setup program, the PCI and IDE auto-
configuration utilities, and the video BIOS.
Serial ATA and IDE Auto Configuration
If you install a Serial ATA or IDE device (such as a hard drive) in your board, the auto-configuration
utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the device for your computer. You do not
need to run the BIOS Setup program after installing a Serial ATA or IDE device. You can override the
auto-configuration options by specifying manual configuration in the BIOS Setup program.
When booting from a Serial ATA device, Serial ATA connector 0 is the first boot device and Serial
ATA connector 3 is the last boot device.
PCI and PCI Express Auto Configuration
If you install a PCI/PCI Express add-in card in your board, the PCI/PCI Express auto-configuration
utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the resources (IRQs, DMA channels, and I/O
space) for that add-in card. You do not need to run the BIOS Setup program after you install a PCI/PCI
Express add-in card.
Security Passwords
The BIOS includes security features that restrict whether the BIOS Setup program can be accessed
and who can boot the computer. A supervisor password and a user password can be set for the BIOS
Setup and for booting the computer, with the following restrictions:
• The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all Setup options. If
only the supervisor password is set, pressing <Enter> at the password prompt of Setup gives
the user restricted access to Setup.
• If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, you must enter either the supervisor
password or the user password to access Setup. Setup options are then available for viewing
and changing depending on whether the supervisor or user password was entered.

16 17MAXDATA FUSION 6000 IBoard Features
16 17MAXDATA FUSION 6000 IBoard Features
• Setting a user password restricts who can boot the computer. The password prompt is
displayed before the computer is booted. If only the supervisor password is set, the computer
boots without asking for a password. If both passwords are set, you can enter either password
to boot the computer.
Chassis Intrusion
The board supports a chassis security feature that detects if the chassis cover has been removed. The
security feature uses a mechanical switch on the chassis that can be connected to the chassis intrusion
header on the board. See Figure 15 on page 29 for the location of the chassis intrusion header.
Power Management Features
Power management is implemented at several levels, including:
• Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)
• Hardware support:
- Fan connectors
- Suspend to RAM (Instantly Available PC technology)
- Resume on Ring
- Wake from USB
- Wake from PS/2 keyboard/mouse
- PME# wakeup support
ACPI
ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug and Play
functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with the board requires an operating system that provides
full ACPI support.
Fan Connectors
The board has three chassis fan headers (two 3-pin and one 4-pin) and one processor fan header
(4-pin).
Fan Speed Control (Intel® Precision Cooling Technology)
Intel® Precision Cooling Technology automatically adjusts the processor fan speed based on the
processor temperature and adjusts the chassis fan speeds depending on the system temperature.
System fan noise may be reduced by operating controlled chassis and processor fans at the minimum
necessary speeds.
 NOTE
Not all chassis fan headers on the board are controlled. Refer to Table 2 to identify controlled chassis
fan headers.
The processor and chassis fan speed control features can be disabled independently through the
board BIOS. Disabling the processor fan speed control will result in the fan operating at full speed if
it is not a self controlled fan.

16 17MAXDATA FUSION 6000 IBoard Features
16 17MAXDATA FUSION 6000 IBoard Features
Suspend to RAM (Instantly Available PC Technology)
Instantly Available PC technology enables the board to enter the ACPI S3 (Suspend-to-RAM) sleep
state. While in the S3 sleep state, the computer will appear to be off. When signaled by a wake-up
device or event, the system quickly returns to its last known awake state.
The board’s standby power indicator, shown in Figure 4, is lit when there is standby power to the
system. This includes the memory modules and PCI bus connectors, even when the computer
appears to be off.
Resume on Ring
The operation of Resume on Ring can be summarized as follows:
• Resumes operation from either ACPI S1 or ACPI S3 state
• Requires only one call to access the computer
• Detects incoming call similarly for external and internal modems
• Requires modem interrupt be unmasked for correct operation
Wake from USB
USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 or S3 state.
 NOTE
Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB.

A battery on the board keeps the values in CMOS RAM and the clock current when the computer
is turned off.
Real-Time Clock
The board has a time-of-day clock and 100-year calendar. The battery on the board keeps the clock
current when the computer is turned off.

MF 19MAXDATA FUSION 6000 IInstalling and Replacing Board Components
3 Installing and Replacing Board Components
Before You Begin
WARNING
The procedures in this chapter assume familiarity with the general terminology associated with
personal computers and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and
modifying electronic equipment.
Disconnect the computer from its power source and from any telecommunications links, networks,
or modems before performing any of the procedures described in this chapter. Failure to disconnect
power, telecommunications links, networks, or modems before you open the computer or perform
any procedures can result in personal injury or equipment damage. Some circuitry on the board can
continue to operate even though the front panel power button is off.
Follow these guidelines before you begin:
• Always follow the steps in each procedure in the correct order.
• Set up a log to record information about your computer, such as model, serial numbers,
installed options, and configuration information.
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedures described in
this chapter only at an ESD workstation using an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam
pad. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an
antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the computer chassis.
Installation Precautions
When you install and test the board, observe all warnings and cautions in the installation
instructions.
To avoid injury, be careful of:
• Sharp pins on connectors
• Sharp pins on printed circuit assemblies
