Introduction This technical manual describes the system board D2529, which can be ® equipped with one or two Intel processors. You will find further information in the BIOS description. Further information about drivers is provided in the readme files on the hard disk, on the supplied “ServerStart“...
Information on which system expansions are suitable can be obtained from the customer service centre or your sales outlet. The warranty expires if the device is damaged during the installation or replacement of system expansions. Technical Manual D2529 (TX300 S4)

Incorrect replacement of lithium battery may lead to a risk of explosion. The batteries may only be replaced with identical batteries or with a type recommended by the manufacturer. It is essential to observe the instructions in chapter “Replacing the lithium battery”. Technical Manual D2529 (TX300 S4)

Place all components on a static-safe base. You will find a detailed description for handling ESD components in the relevant European or international standards (EN 61340-5-1, ANSI/ESD S20.20). Technical Manual D2529 (TX300 S4)
Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for leverage. CE Certificate The shipped version of this board complies with the requirements of the EEC directive 89/336/EEC "Electromagnetic compatibility". Compliance was tested in a typical PRIMERGY configuration. Technical Manual D2529 (TX300 S4)
Cd Cadmium Hg Mercury Pb Lead Notes on labeling plastic housing parts Please avoid attaching your own labels to plastic housing parts wherever possible, since this makes it difficult to recycle them. Technical Manual D2529 (TX300 S4)

Overview Features The TPM is activated via the BIOS system (for more information, refer to the Fujitsu Siemens Computers BIOS manual). CAUTION! – When using the TPM, note the program descriptions provided by the third party manufacturers. – You must also create a backup of the TPM content. To do this, follow the third party manufacturer's instructions.
