16 Keysight M9036A Embedded Controller Startup Guide
Step 3: Install the M9036A Embedded Controller
Follow these steps to install the M9036A Embedded Controller in a PXIe chassis.
1 Ensure the PXIe chassis is turned off. The chassis should be plugged into an
AC power source. The AC power cord grounds the chassis and protects it from
electrical damage while modules are installed.
2 On the M9018A chassis, set the rear panel INHIBIT switch to DEF.
3 Remove the screw protection caps from the four M9036A retaining screws.
4 Push down on the controller’s ejector/injector handle. The red button on the
handle must be depressed to release it.
5 Carefully align the M9036A board edges with the chassis guide rails for slot 1
(red guide rails) and insert the controller into the guide rails.
6 Push inward on the module until it is firmly seated in the chassis. (Do not force
the handle if there is resistance; this may damage the connectors and/or
backplane.)
7 Pull up on the ejector/injector handle to firmly seat the controller.
8 Tighten the module’s four (4) captive retaining screws.
9 A slot blocker should be installed immediately to the left of the M9036A to
ensure proper airflow.
10 Connect other peripherals (such as the keyboard, mouse, monitor, LAN cable
for remote access, etc.) to the Embedded Controller.
Some non-Keysight PXIe chassis manufacturers install small
chassis stops just to the left of the slot 1 guide rails (both top and
bottom). Refer to the photo below. These must be removed prior
to installing the M9036A Embedded Controller. They snap in and
are easily pulled out.
