First Time Launching the Transceiver
1. Enable reference: click to run the M9300A Soft Front Panel software. The connection
window will pop up as the picture in the left. Click Connect. The soft front panel window will pop
up as the picture in the right.The indicator "Int Ref Locked" on the lower left corner indicates the
100 MHz signal outputs properly.
2. Click to execute the transceiver launcher. Launcher will check the FPGA versions on all
the installed modules. If the FPGA version is
different with the version required by current
TRX software, the FPGA on this module will
be updated automatically. During the FPGA
updating, a message box will be shown as
following and the LED on the module will be
in Fast Blink mode.
After FPGA update is completed successfully,
a message box will pop up, Click OK and
then re-power the chassis to enable the
update.
If there is not any module numbers displayed in the launcher during the launching
process, the possible reason is the controller’s TRX software version is not
compatible with the later FPGA version in the module.
To upgrade the module’s FPGA version, please go to
http://www.keysight.com/find/m9410a -> Support Tab -> Drivers, Firmware &
software to download the latest FPGA service pack UpdateFPGA.exe. After running
this file, the FGPA version will be upgraded and the current installed module number
will be shown in the launcher.
