should be disconnected.
2.2.1 G PCIe/ G PXIe 6281
After you have completely unpacked the
Multibus Controller 6281
, please check the tight fit of the transceiver
boards.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your system and destroy electronic components. This can
lead to irreparable damage to the PCIe board or to the system in which the board is operated. The result
is unexpected malfunctions of your test system. Never touch the board surface, connector terminals or
electronic components.
Please also use the manual for your PCIe system. If necessary, further installation instructions to be
observed are included.
Open your
PCIe™/ PXIe™
system according to its circumstances. Select a free slot in your
PCIe™/ PXIe™
system.
Remove the existing slot plate of the selected slot. For this, the fastening screws must be loosened.
The plug-in card should be inserted carefully in the prepared slot. Please note that you need at least one 4x slot
for the PCIe plug-in card. After contacting the plug-in card, it must be fastened according to the conditions. Thus,
the plug-in card is installed properly. Afterwards, if necessary, the work on the system must be carried out to make
it ready for operation again.
Finally, establish all necessary and desired connections to the DUT or the test environment.
