Step 7: Install User Application Modules in the AXIe Chassis
Step 7: Install User Application Modules in the AXIe Chassis
The AXIe chassis accepts modules conforming to the AXIe standard. These may
include:
– AXIe instrument or instrument hub modules
– AXIe embedded controller module (must be installed in chassis sl
ot 1 for
M9502A/M9505A chassis or any chassis
slot for M9514A
chassis)
– AXIe fil
ler panel modules
The insertion and removal procedures are the same for the 2-slot and 5-slot
chassis, and for all module types except filler panels.
Periodically check for the latest AXIe chassis firmware at:

Static Electricity — The components and connectors on modules are
sensitive to static electricity. To minimize electrostatic damage,
take the necessary anti-static precautions. Both chassis provide a
grounding terminal, to which you can connect a wrist strap.
Empty Slots — Except for performing initial chassis verification or
troubleshooting, do not operate the chassis with uncovered empty
slots. Always insert a filler panel module or instrument module
into empty slots. This is especially important for the slots on either
side of an instrument module. This allows proper air flow and
cooling, and provides EMI shielding for the chassis and installed
components. Leaving empty slots uncovered can increase fan
speed, raise ambient noise, overheat components, and shut down
modules.
ESM — The Embedded System Manager (ESM) module is integral
to the operation of the AXIe chassis. Except for troubleshooting
purposes, do not remove the ESM.
Hot Swap — AXIe does not explicitly support hot swap for
instrument modules. Keysight recommends that you fully power
down and unplug the chassis before installing or removing
modules.
