module into chassis, using the slot guides (top and bottom).
b. Sliding the module into position, when you begin to feel resistance, pull
up on the injector/ejector handle to fully inject the module into the
chassis backplane connectors.
c. Tighten the module retaining screws (top and bottom) and torque them
to 5 Lb-In (0.57 N-m).
3. If you have an M9036A controller, install a blank Y1213A filler panel in the
empty slot to the left of the controller.
4. Connect peripherals (mouse, keyboard, and monitor).
Remote Controller
If your solution contains a Keysight M9021A Cable Interface Module, follow the
procedure below. For additional information about installing the M9021A, refer to the
.
The following procedure addresses using the M9021A as a cabled
PCIe interface between the M9018A chassis and an external host
computer.
However
, if you intend to use an M9021A module to
control a subordinate downstream chassis or RAID :
Install the M9021A in an x8 hybrid slot in the PXIe chassis
(M9018A chassis slots 2, 6, 11, or 15).
•Reverse the switch settings from those noted in this procedure:
On the M9021A module, set both S301 switches to “Host” and set
the S201 rocker switch to the left-hand position. On the M9018A
chassis backplane, set the controller slot power-supply switch to
the left.
1. Locate slot 1 in the chassis. It has the icon (
) above it.
2. Set the M9018A chassis controller slot power supply switch to the right-hand
position. This provides power to slot 1 for the benefit of the M9021A card.
3. Remove the M9021A module from its protect bag. Observe
(see page
).
4. On the M9021A module, set both S301 switches to the “Host” (right-hand) pos-
ition and set the S201 rocker switch to the left-hand position.
