2.11 - Installing the Power Supply 
 
There are three power connectors on your S5393. The S5393 requires that you have an 
EPS12V power supply that has a 24-pin, two 8-pin power connectors.
 
Please be aware 
that ATX 2.x, ATX12V and ATXGES power supplies may not be compatible with the 
board and can damage the motherboard and/or CPU(s). 
 
PWR1: 24-pin EPS 12V power 
connector 
 
 
 
PWR2: 8-pin EPS 12V power 
connecto
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
PWR3 for CPU: 8-pin EPS 12V 
power Connecto
 
 
Applying power to the board 
1. 
Connect the EPS 12V 8-pin power connector. 
2. 
Connect the EPS 12V 24-pin power connector. 
3. 
Connect the EPS 12V 8-pin power connector.  
 
We suggest using a 750W or higher power supply; this is of course dependent on how 
many devices you attach. A 750W power is sufficient for systems without many devices 
(i.e. 1 hard drive, 1 optical drive, and 1 or 2 expansion cards) however a higher wattage 
solution may be needed if the system is fully loaded. Refer to the 
http://www.tyan.com 
website for further information. 
 
NOTE: The Tempest i5400PL (S5393) peripheral drive power connector must be 
independent of any other devices. A device such as a DVD/CD-ROM drive, hard drive, or 
any other devices cannot be attached onto the same power line. If connected, system 
stability is compromised. 
 
NOTE 
YOU MUST unplug the power supply before plugging the power cables to 
motherboard connector s.
