Installation Procedure (Linux)
The MD1 Software Package provides a specific fundamental driver
(
libAgMD1Fundamental.so
) and a specific IVI-C driver (
libAgMD1.so
), which following
the procedure detailed below, will be installed in the /usr/lib/ folder.
The package also includes the driver which was contained in the previous Acqiris
Software Package (
libAqDrv4.so
), allowing backward compatibility with existing
software applications.
Please refer to the detailed installation instructions contained in the 'README' file,
which is available from:
The /Linux folder of the AgMD1 DVD (M9210-90007)
The driver page of the Keysight Technologies website.
Or the downloaded .tar.gz archive package.
Step 4: Install the Module
The U1084A features a x4 PCIe bus interface, and should be installed in either a 4x, a
x8 or x16 slot.
To fit the module to the PC / chassis please use the following procedure:
1. Ensure that the PC is switched off, and disconnect the power cord. Open the PC
case.
2. Follow ESD precautions when handling and installing the U1084A.
3. When installing the U1084A ensure that it has optimum cooling, do not install it
in a position where the integrated cooling fans may be obstructed.
4. Loosen (but do not remove) the 4 screws holding the rear support bracket
(shown in violet in the diagram), and slide it towards the fans.
5. Insert the module into the PCIe slot of the PC or chassis, ensuring that it is fully
seated into the PCIe bus connector.
6. Fit a screw to the top front panel and tighten it.
7. Fully extend the rear support bracket and ensure that it is inside the PCIe back
plane rail.
8. Tighten the 4 screws. (0.5 Nm torque)
9. Replace any covers and switch-on the PC. Check the module front panel indic-
ators - a few seconds after the boot process, both the '
Status
' and '
DPU
' LEDs
should be green.
Both the front panel screw and the rear support bracket must be
used to correctly support the unit. Failure to do this could result in
damage to the unit.
