Keysight M9035A PXIe Embedded Controller Startup Guide
Step 3: Install the M9035A Embedded Controller
Power Down Modes
Keysight’s M9035A defaults to the Windows Ultimate Performance Power Plan.
This plan does not allow the controller display to shut off or the controller to
enter a sleep mode.
Controller and Chassis Drivers
All of the M9035A Controller and Keysight PXIe Chassis drivers were installed on
your controller at the factory. However, you should periodically check the
M9035A web page (
) for the most current
M9035A software and drivers. Likewise, check the PXIe chassis web page for the
latest PXIe Chassis Family Driver.
You cannot enable the Microsoft Windows Sleep mode. It is
disabled to prevent the controller from entering the Sleep mode
while it is running a user test program.
If you have a USB keyboard with a Sleep button (sometimes this is
a key with a crescent moon logo), do not use it.
If you already have a Keysight M9036A Embedded Controller and you
want to upgrade to an M9035A, be aware that the IVI API drivers are
not the same. You will need to update any programs/applications you
have written and rebuild them.
