TYAN TITAN TURBO AT-2 User manual

Should a problem arise with your system, you should first turn to your reseller.
Your system has most likely been configured by them, and so they should have
the best idea of what is in your system. Hence, they should be able to help you
the most. Further, if you purchased your system from a dealer nearby, you can
actually bring your system to them to have it serviced instead of fiddling with it
yourself. If your reseller is unable to assist you, try our web page, http://
www.tyan.com, or our newsgroup, alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.tyan.

1.1 Overview
The S1571 is a quality, high performance mainboard designed for Intel
Pentium microprocessors. This mainboard utilizes the Intel 430TX
chipset and can support CPU speeds of 75MHz through 233MHz. The
S1571 will also support the CyrixM1/6x86, Cyrix M2, AMD K6, and Intel
multimedia Pentium P55C/P54CTB (MMX Overdrive), which utilizes
MMX commands.
The S1571's PCI Local Bus provides high performance capabilities that
are ideal for a wide range of demanding applications such as CAD,
CAM, CAE, networking, multi-user environments, database manage-
ment, desktop publishing, image processing, and 3D animation.
This integrated system board achieves high reliability with numerous
features and yet is small enough to be supported in an AT form factor.
Some of the features included are on-board dual channel PCI PIO, Bus
Master IDE and UltraDMA/33, on-board floppy controller, USB Port,
PS/2 Mouse Port, on-board high speed I/O, and support for pipeline-burst
SRAM.
Flexibility and expandibility have been designed into the S1571. With I/O
and drive controller support built on-board, the five PCI and four ISA
(one ISA and one PCI as a shared slot) slots are free for numerous add-
on expansion cards.

Chapter2–BoardInstallation
2.1 Unpacking
The mainboard package should contain the following:
wS1571Mainboard
wOne IDE 40 pin cable
wOne 34 pin floppy cable
wUser's Manual
The mainboard contains sensitive electric components which can be easily
damaged by static electricity, so the mainboard should be left in its original
packaging until it is ready to be installed.
With the power supply plugged in and turned off, touch an unpainted area
of the system chassis immediately before handling the mainboard or any
component. Doing so discharges the static charge your body may have
acquired.
After opening the mainboard carton, extract the system board–holding it by
its edges–and place it on a grounded anti-static surface, component side
up. Inspect the board for damage. Do not inspect board unless it is placed
on an anti-static mat. Do not touch the bottom of the board.
DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN
DAMAGED!
Board Installation
2.2 Installation
You are now ready to install your mainboard. The mounting hole pattern of
the S1571 matches the Baby-AT system board specifications. It is assumed
that the chassis is for a standard Baby-AT mainboard form factor.

The S1571 uses flash memory to store BIOS programs. It can be updated
as new versions of the BIOS become available. The flash utility will guide
you through the process step by step.
JP23 determines which type of EPROM is used. This jumper has been set
to match the on-board BIOS chip. The factory default for the S1571 is on
pins 1 and 2. Depending on the type of EPROM used, some boards will
have JP23 on pins 2 and 3.
Refer to chapter 5 for Flash EPROM upgrade procedures.
3.7 Hardware CMOS & Password Reset: JP22
If you have been locked out of your system because you forgot your pass-
word or set the CMOS incorrectly, follow the instructions below.
a. Power off the system.
b. Connect jumper JP22 to pins 2 and 3.
c. Wait for 2 seconds, then return JP22 to pins 1 and 2.
d. Power on the system again.
By following the above procedures, you will erase your password and re-
set the CMOS to the BIOS defaults.

3.9 CPU Installation
Several types of CPUs can be used on the S1571. Please refer to
section 3.2 for the correct CPU jumper settings for your board.
Remember:
w The CPU is a sensitive electronic component and it can be easily
damaged by static electricity. Do not touch the CPU pins with your
fingers.
w When installing the CPU into the socket, match the CPU pins to the
socket pins.
w Before the CPU is installed, the mainboard must be placed on a flat
surface. You should be able to insert the CPU with minimal pressure.
Do not push down hard, but do use firm pressure.
wA cooling fan and/or heat sink assembly is required to protect
the CPU from being damaged.
wIf you use 4MBx64 DIMMs you cannot use DRAM bank 2. DRAM
bank 2 has an upper limit of 32MB.
wWe do not recommend using DRAM bank 2 along with DIMMs.
wThe following table shows some of the available memory configurations.

3.10 Upgrading Cache Memory
The S1571 has 512KB of on-board pipeline-burst SRAM and cannot be
upgraded in the field. The TX chipset can cache a maximium of 64MB
of RAM.
3.11 Peripheral Device Installation
After all the jumpers on the mainboard have been set, it can then be mounted
into the case. Proceed to install the display card and any other peripheral
devices.
If a PCI-Bus interface card is to be installed in the system, any one of the
five PCI-Bus slots can support either a Master or a Slave device.
After installing the peripheral controllers, you should check everything
again, and prepare to power on the system.
Installation procedure:
1. Make sure the ZIF socket lever is up. To raise the lever, pull it out
to the side a little and raise it as far as it will go. The top plate will
slide back.
2. Align the CPU and socket pin 1 corners. The pins on the bottom of
the CPU should align with the rows of holes in the socket.
3. Insert the CPU in the socket. It should insert easily. If it does not,
adjust the position of the lever a little.
4. Press the lever down. The top plate will slide forward. You will
feel some resistance as the pressure starts to secure the CPU in
the socket. This is normal and will not damage the CPU. The lever
should snap into place at the side of the socket.
