This procedure can be done using PSA Interactive, PowerShell Wish, or PowerShell Tcl. When using PSA
Interactive or PowerShell Wish, the procedure is as follows:
1. Set up each RackPack PSA chassis to a unique IP address
2. Connect and power up both chassis’ on the local network
3. Open PowerShell Wish or PSA Interactive
4. In the PSA Connection window, enter the IP address of the first RackPack PSA chassis and press Add Chassis
5. In the Selection List, select the newly added address (Note: Status will report “PSA-3048 Init…”) and a
message box will appear instructing the user to enter the second PSA-3048 address
6. In the PSA Connection window, enter the IP address of the second RackPack PSA chassis and press Add
Chassis
7. In the Selection List, select the newly added address
8. Press Connect
PowerShell Wish or PSA Interactive will then open up connected to the second of the two PSA’s entered during the
procedure. At this point, any PSA application will have ready access to the RackPack system.
3.6.8. Connecting PowerShell TCL to a PSA-3248 or PSA-3048 Instrument
NOTE! The following procedure was obsoleted with PSA software version 5.2.04 or later releases.
PSA Software must initially learn the IP address of each PowerSync chassis on the local network. In order for PSA
software to work with the RackPack PSA, it must learn the address of both PSA chassis’ before controlling either
one.
This one-time procedure is easily done using PowerShell Tcl. The procedure is as follows:
1. Set up each RackPack PSA chassis to a unique IP address
2. Connect and power up both chassis’ on the local network
3. Open PowerShell Tcl and enter “N” or “NO” to the initial address prompt
4. Enter the IP address of either chassis
5. Upon prompt for SECOND RackPack address, enter the IP address of the other chassis
PowerShell Tcl will then open with an active connection to the first PSA address entered. At this point, any PSA
application will have ready access to the RackPack system.
3.6.9. Inventory the PowerSync or PhyView Instrument
Once connected to any instrument, PowerShell may be used to quickly inventory the types of test resources and the
associated firmware versions of the PowerSync instrument. To see this inventory:
1. Open PowerShell TCL or PowerShell WISH.
2. Execute the command psa_config -d
This will provide a full inventory of instrument resources as
