Installing Modules Chassis Installation
Verify Operation
Verify that the chassis powers up correctly and that Keysight
Connection Expert recognizes the chassis configuration and installed modules
(see
page 35 ).
Installing Modules
The AXIe chassis accept modules conforming to the single slot, 1U AXIe
standard. These may include:
- AXIe instrument or instrument hub* modules
- AXIe embedded controller* module
- AXIe filler panel modules
* If used, a hub or controller module must be installed in slot 1
The insertion and removal procedures are the same for the 2-slot and 5-slot
chassis, and for all module types except filler panels.
The chassis is shipped with filler panel modules in all but Slot 1; you may need to
remove filler panels from covered slots.
Static Electricity —The components and connectors on modules are sensitive to
static electricity. To minimize electrostatic damage, take the necessary
anti-static precautions. Both chassis provide a grounding terminal, to which
you can connect a wrist strap. To locate this terminal, see
“M9502A 2-Slot AXIe
Chassis at a Glance” on page 4 and “M9505A 5-Slot AXIe Chassis at a Glance”
on page 6.
Empty Slots —Except for performing initial chassis verification or troubleshooting,
do not operate the chassis with empty slots. Always insert a filler panel module
or instrument module into empty slots. This is especially important for the slots
on either side of an instrument module. This allows proper air flow and cooling,
and provides EMI shielding for the chassis and installed components. Leaving
slots empty can increase fan speed, raise ambient noise, overheat components,
and shut down modules.
ESM —The Embedded System Manager is integral to the operation of the
chassis. Except for troubleshooting purposes, do not remove the ESM.
Hot Swap —AXIe does not explicitly support hot swap for instrument modules.
Keysight recommends fully powering down the chassis before installing or
removing modules
Embedded Controller Module —Manually initiate a graceful shutdown of the
controller operating system and power off the chassis before removing the
module.
