Installing M8040A Module(s)
The M9505A AXIe chassis and M8040A module(s) will come in separate
shipments. This section shows how to carefully insert a module in an
empty slot of an M9505A AXIe chassis. The slots are identified by the slot
numbers written on the front panel of the chassis.
NOTE
The procedures in this section are not required if your system is an
M8040A-BU1
,
M8040A-BU2
or M8040A-BU3
, which have their
modules pre-installed.
NOTE
If you plan to use the M9537A AXIe Embedded Controller as the host
computer, then you must reserve slot 1 of the chassis for this module’s
installation.
CAUTION
•
The instrument modules are not hot swappable. You must power
down the AXIe chassis and host PC before inserting, replacing, or
removing a module.
•
The enclosure surface of the instrument module may become hot
during use. If you need to remove the module, first power down the
AXIe chassis, allow the module to cool, and then pull the module out
of the chassis.
