Return the Damaged/Defective Item to Keysight for Repair/Replacement
If anything is missing, defective, or damaged,
1 Review the warranty information shipped with your product or check
the warranty information on Keysight website.
• To check the warranty information on your module, go to
www.keysight.com/find/warranty and specify the module’s model
number (for example, M8199A) in the Product Number field, and
specify the serial number from the top of the module in the Serial
Number field.
2 Contact the nearest Keysight Sales Office. If you need assistance
finding Keysight contact information, go to
www.keysight.com/find/assist (worldwide contact information for
repair and service).
Step 2 - Setting up the M8100 series of modules
This step does not have to be performed while verifying the basic setup for
power up and connectivity. However, you must decide whether to use a
benchtop or rack mount for one or more AWG modules in the M8100
series after this basic verification. To procedures on how to set up the
AWG modules in an AXIe chassis, refer to the M8000 Series Installation
Guide.
Step 3 - Setting up the External Host Computer (not required for M8100A-BU6)
The host computer communicates with the ESM and instrument modules
in the chassis and hosts all the software components needed to use the
instrument modules.
Perform this step if you are using a laptop or desktop computer as the
host computer.
