Startup Guide
Assemble the M9383A
— Set the fan speed switch on the rear panel of the chassis to HIGH. If this
switch is set to AUTO, the module may not receive sufficient airflow to
provide adequate cooling. This can result in a thermal shutdown of the VSG.
Note that some chassis, when the fan speed switch is set to AUTO, ramp up
the fan speed if excess heat is detected within the chassis. However, all
chassis do not exhibit this behavior; so setting the fan speed switch to HIGH
ensures maximum cooling with all chassis.
Chassis Air Flow
The Keysight M9018B/M9019B has multiple air intakes. They are located at the
lower sides, lower front, and bottom of the chassis.
Cable and Connector Care
When you need to disconnect push-on cables from the module front panel
connectors, use the Keysight Cable Removal Tool (PN 5002-3361) provided in
your Keysight PXIe instrument's ship kit
To avoid damage to the cables or connectors, pull the cable straight away from
the connector. Do not use the tool as a pry bar.
