Cassette and Backplane Location References
For consistency across all customer configurations, the backplane and cassette reference numbers
are arbitrarily chosen to be defined as shown in
. The sixteen quadrants labeled 1A to 8B
are Advantest defined labels
2
. The
“
arrow
up”
engravings on the twinning frame are referenced as
pointing
“UP”.
Instruments on the right side of cassettes are plugged into backplane 2. Instruments
on the left side of cassettes are plugged into backplane 1. User documentation should be provided
to explain to the cassette installer which direction to plug in the cassette. The backplane that an
instrument is plugged into also effects the Master Clock synchronization scheme. See
Clock Sync Configuration on AT93000 backplanes
on page 9.
