How to Access Two M8190A Modules in a Single Chassis
You can operate two M8190A modules in a single M9505A AXIe chassis. In this case,
each module needs a separate instance of the M8190A firmware to control it. The two
firmware instances can either run on the M9537A embedded controller inside the AXIe
chassis or on a separate PC that is connected via PCIe or USB to the AXIe chassis.
If you have more than one module in the same chassis, you must specify the firmware
which module it should control. Also, since both instances of the firmware are running
on the same PC, you also must instruct the firmware, which TCP/IP port it should use
for remote commands.
Following are the recommend steps to do that:
Step 1 - Create a shortcut of the M8190A firmware on your desktop and rename it to
“M8190A #1”. Then create another shortcut of the firmware and rename “M8190A #2”.
