B. Select Controller (Embedded Controller)

Step 1. If selecting an embedded controller, select either M9036A or M9037A

– M9036A Mid-performance embedded controller

– Intel i5-520E dual-core, 2.4 GHz, 4 thread, 4 GB RAM

– Select the M9036A for mid-performance, lower cost

– M9037A High-performance embedded controller

– Intel i7-4700EQ quad-core processor, 2.4 GHz, 8 thread, 4 GB RAM

– Select M9037A for the best performance if you have memory intensive applications,

multiple applications running in parallel or if a lot of data is sent to the PC from the PXIe

chassis. Features removable SSD drive for security and x8 connector from front for

connection to second chassis

Step 2. Upgrade from standard memory size (optional)

For M9036A

– M9036A-M08 Memory upgrade from 4 GB to 8 GB RAM

For M9037A

– M9037A-M08 Memory upgrade from 4 GB to 8 GB RAM

– M9037A-M16 Memory upgrade from 4 GB to 16 GB RAM

Step 3. Select an operating system

For M9036A

– M9036A-WE3 Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard 7 (32-bit)

– M9036A-WE6 Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard 7 (64-bit)

For M9037A

– M9037A-WE3 Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard 7 (32-bit)

– M9037A-WE6 Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard 7 (64-bit)

1. For a list of qualified external controllers, please see Test Computer List Technical Note literature no. 5990-7632EN. The M9021A is used for both PC

controllers and can only be used in the M9018A chassis.

2. The M9018A 18-slot chassis includes empty space to the left of the first functional slot. The embedded controller occupies that empty space and the first

functional slot.
