Express5800/R120e-1M User’s Guide 15 Precautions for Use (Be Sure to Read) Safety notes This section provides notes on using the server safely. Read this section carefully to ensure proper and safe use of the server. For symbols, refer to Safety precautions. General WARNING Do not use the server for services where human life may be at stake or high reliability is required. This server is not intended for use in medical, nuclear, aerospace, mass transit or other applications where human life may be at stake or high reliability is required, nor is it intended for use in controlling such applications. We disclaim liability for any personal injury and property damages caused by such use of this server. Do not use the server if any smoke, odor, or noise is present. If smoke, odor, or noise is present, immediately turn off the server and disconnect the power plug from the outlet, then contact the store where you purchased the product or your maintenance service company. Using the server in such conditions may cause a fire. Do not insert needles or metal objects. Do not insert needles or metal objects into ventilation holes in the server or openings in the optical disk drive. Doing so may cause an electric shock. Use a rack that conforms to the designated standard This server can be mounted onto a 19-inch rack that conforms to EIA standards. Do not mount the server onto any rack that does not conform to EIA standards. Doing so may cause a server malfunction, personal injury, or damage to peripheral devices. For more information about racks that can be used with the server, consult with your maintenance service company. Use the server only under the specified environment Do not install the server rack in any environment that is not suitable for installation. Installation in an unsuitable environment is harmful for the server and other systems installed in the rack and may cause fire or personal injury due to the rack falling. For a detailed explanation on installation environments or seismic reinforcement, consult with the instruction manual supplied with the rack or your maintenance service company. CAUTION Keep water or foreign matter away from the server. Do not let any liquid such as water or foreign materials including pins or paper clips enter the server. Failure to follow this warning may cause an electric shock, a fire, or failure of the server. When such things accidentally enter the server, immediately turn off the power and disconnect the power plug from the outlet. Do not disassemble the server, and contact the store where you purchased the product or your maintenance service company. 16 Express5800/R120e-1M User’s Guide Precautions for Use (Be Sure to Read) Rack installation CAUTION Do not attempt to carry or install the server alone More than two people are required to carry or install the rack. Otherwise, the rack may fall, resulting in personal injury or damage to peripheral devices. In particular, tall racks such as a 44U rack become unstable unless steadied with a stabilizer. Make sure that two or more people hold the rack to carry or install the rack. Do not install with the load weight distributed unevenly To avoid unevenly distributing the load of the rack and server, install a stabilizer or connect multiple racks to distribute the weight. Otherwise, the rack may fall, resulting in personal injury. Do not install components alone, and check the door hinge pins of the rack Two or more people are required to install the rack components such as the door or rails. When installing the door, make sure that both upper and lower hinge pins are held in place. Incomplete attachment may cause components to fall off as well as personal injury. Do not extend any device from the rack that is not stabilized When extending a device from the rack, make sure that the rack is stable (by using a stabilizer or seismic reinforcement). Otherwise, the rack may fall, resulting in personal injury. Do not extend more than one device out of the rack Extending multiple devices from the rack may cause the rack to fall, resulting in personal injury. Extend only one device at one time. Do not exceed the rated capacity of the power supply when connecting devices To prevent burn injuries, fire, and damage to the server, make sure the load on the branch circuit that supplies power to the rack will not exceed the rated load.

Express5800/R120e-1M User’s Guide 23 Precautions for Use (Be Sure to Read) Tips for your health and safety Using a computer extensively may affect different parts of your body. Here are tips you should follow while working on a computer to minimize strain on your body. Keep proper posture The basic body position for using a computer is sitting straight with your hands on the keyboard parallel with the floor, and your eyes directed slightly downward toward the monitor. With the proper posture described above, no unnecessary strain is applied on any part of your body, in other words when your muscles are most relaxed. Working on the computer with bad posture such as hunching over or being too close to the monitor could cause fatigue or deteriorated eyesight. Adjust the angle of your display Most display units are designed for adjustment of the horizontal and vertical angles. This adjustment is important to prevent the screen from reflecting bright lights and to make the display contents easy to see. Working without adjusting the display to a comfortable angle makes it difficult for you to maintain a proper posture and you will get tired easily. Adjust the viewing angle before use. Adjust the brightness and contrast of the display Display screens have functions to control brightness and contrast. The most suitable brightness/contrast depends on age, individuals, and environment, so adjust it to suit your preferences. A too bright or too dark display is bad for your eyes. Adjust the angle of keyboard Some keyboards are ergonomically designed, which allow the angle to be adjusted. Adjusting the angle of the keyboard is effective to reduce tension on your shoulders, arms, and fingers. Clean your equipment Keeping your equipment clean is important not only for the appearance but also for functional and safety reasons. A dusty monitor makes it difficult to see the display contents, so clean it regularly. Take rest breaks When you feel tired, take a break. Light exercise is also recommended. 24 Express5800/R120e-1M User’s Guide NEC Express5800 Series Express5800/R120e-1M General Description This chapter introduces the features of this server and the name of each part. 1.

Express5800/R120e-1M User’s Guide 85 Chapter 2 Preparations 1. Installing Internal Optional Devices 1.13 PCI Card This server provides a riser card for PCI card and a slot for RAID controller. The riser card can connect one Full Height PCI card, one Low Profile PCI card and one RAID controller (total three PCI card can be mounted). Important You must avoid static electricity to work with the procedure below. For details, see Chapter 2 (1.2 Anti-static Measures). 1.13.1 Notes Read the following notes when installing or removing a PCI card. • Do not touch the terminals of the riser cards and the leads of electronic components with your bare hand. Fingerprints and dust left on them cause the server to malfunction due to a connection failure or damage to the leads. • Available type of PCI card depends on riser card. Make sure the card type before connecting it to riser card. • The server provides no connector to connect a LED connector which is supplied in RAID Controller used to indicate disk access. • PCI slot number "1C" is assigned to the riser card for Low Profile PCI cards, "1B" is assigned to the riser card for Full Height PCI cards, "1A" is assigned to the RAID controller slot, “1D” is assigned to LAN Riser Card slot. • The search order for PCI bus slot on boot is as follows. Slot 1A (dedicated to RAID Controller) → Slot 1B (Full height card slot) → Slot 1C (Low profile card slot) → Slot 1D (dedicated to LAN riser card) • The PCI devices of the same type (including onboard PCI device) may be recognized in different order from that described above, depending on OS or RAID Configuration Utility. Check the slot location of PCI device by PCI bus number, device number and function number shown in the table below. PCI device 86 Bus number Device number Function number Onboard LAN1 02h 0 0 Onboard LAN2 02h 0 1 RAID controller slot 1A 21h 0 × Slot 1B (Full Height) 25h 0 × Slot 1C (Low Profile) 2Dh 0 × LAN Riser Card slot 1D 03h 0 × • If an additional LAN card is installed, it is hard to push the catch of the connector with your finger that is connected to the LAN card. Disconnect the connector pushing the catch with a standard screwdriver. At this time, be very careful for the screwdriver not to damage the LAN card. • If a bootable device such as a PCI card or USB device is added, the boot order may change. In BIOS Setup Utility, select Hard Drive BBS Priorities from Boot menu, and then specify a higher priority for the boot device. Boot → Hard Drive BBS Priorities → Check the display If the boot device is an HDD under an optional RAID Controller, the display is (Bus xx Dev 00) PCI RAID Adapter. Note that the value for xx changes depending on the PCI slot where a RAID board is installed. • For a RAID Controller, LAN card (network boot), or Fibre Channel controller, if no hard disk drive on which an OS is installed is connected, set the option ROM for that slot to Disabled. See Chapter 2 (1. Detail of System BIOS) in "Maintenance Guide" for how to specify it. Express5800/R120e-1M User’s Guide Chapter 2 Preparations 1.13.2 1.
