72 Keysight M8000 Series of BER Test Solutions Installation Guide
3 Controlling Multiple Instruments
In this setup, the two instruments (shaded transparent rectangles) are
hosted by a M9514A AXIe frame and controlled by a single PC. The first
instrument will be addressed by chassis identifier 1 and slot number 1
and the second instrument will be addressed by chassis identifier 1
and slot number 8 (slot numbers are printed above a slot). The slot
number specifies the first module to be built an instrument.
For starting the software specify following command line option
> keysight.M8070B.exe /chassisid 1 /slotnumber 1
/workspace "InstrumentOne"
> keysight.M8070B.exe /chassisid 1 /slotnumber 8
/workspace "InstrumentTwo"
3 Mixed connection (One PC with multiple M8070B instances and
multiple instruments in a M9514A frame)
In this configuration, multiple Instruments in a M9514A frame are
connected via PCIe connection to the PC while multiple M8070B
instances are connected via USB connection to the PC. See
Figure 52
