It is recommended to use the latest version of Keysight IO
Libraries Suite.
Installing the Keysight IO Libraries Suite
This section describes installation of the Keysight IO Libraries Suite. Note that it is
recommended to use the latest version of the IO Libraries Suite .
Only one installation of the Keysight IO Libraries Suite is required
on the host controller PC. This installation is used by both the
PXIe Chassis drivers that are installed in the next section and the
drivers associated with each module that you install in the
chassis.
Two libraries, IVI Shared Components and VISA Shared
Components, are required by the IO Libraries Suite. If these
libraries are not already installed on your controller, the IO
Libraries Suite installer will install them. If IVI Shared
Components and VISA Shared Components are already installed,
the IO Libraries Suite installer will upgrade these libraries to the
latest version, if necessary, using the same installation location
used by the previous version.

Installing the PXIe chassis software
The PXIe chassis software consist of the chassis soft front panel (SFP) and the IVI-
C, IVI.NET, LabVIEW, and MATLAB drivers for the PXIe chassis.
You can install the software from the M9019A Software and Product Information
CD. Alternatively, you can download and install the software.The software is
available online at
Installing the chassis software from M9019A Software and Product Information
CD
To install the M9019A software, perform the following steps:
Insert the M9019A Software and Product Information CD into your optical
drive. This should automatically display a browser window. If this window is
not displayed, use Windows Explorer to locate autorun.exe at the root level
of the CD and then execute that program.
Click the
Install M9019 Software
link, which will bring up the
Keysight
M9019A InstallShield
Wizard.
Click
Next
and follow the prompts to install the M9019A software. The final
dialog prompts you to restart your computer to complete the installation.
The software installation process is based on using the CDs that
are shipped with the chassis. However, as noted in the previous
section, you will need to adapt the installation process if you
have an embedded controller.
