Step 4 -Install the Modules
M8920A Modules
The M8920A includes three modules that must be installed:
Part Number Module Name
Chassis Slots
Required
M9421A Keysight M9421A VXT PXIe Vector Transceiver
module 4
M9470A Keysight M9470A PXIe 50 W RF Interface module 2
M9260A Keysight M9260A PXIe Audio Analyzer module 1
PXIe hardware does not support "hot-swap" (changing modules
while power is applied to the chassis) capabilities. Before
installing or removing a module to or from the chassis, power off
the chassis to prevent damage to the module.
These modules can be used in a chassis with PXIe or PXIe-H
chassis slots.
Module Installation Process Overview
The module can be installed in any PXIe or hybrid PXIe slot marked with a
peripheral slot compatibility image (solid black circle for PXIe, or solid black
circle with the letter -H- for hybrid).
1. Make sure that the line cord is plugged in to establish earth ground and the
chassis power switch is Off.
2. If the chassis has multiple fan speed settings, ensure that the fan switch is set
to AUTO and the inhibit switch is set to DEF.
3. Position the chassis to provide ample space between the chassis fan intake and
exhaust vents. Blockage by walls or obstructions affects the air flow needed for
cooling. (Refer to the chassis documentation for more information about
cooling).
4. If using a remote PC controller, install the system interface card into the PC
and connect the chassis to the host PC.
