Chapter 2 Assembling Your Instrument

Attaching an expansion module to the 5800v2/100G and 5882

2 Pull the PIM out of the ports.
The PIM is removed from the MSAM chassis.

Swapping PIMs

If you need to swap PIMs during testing, you must turn the BERT (MSAM) module off,
remove one PIM, and then insert another. If you are swapping PIMs in two MSAMs in
the DMC, be certain to turn the BERT (MSAM) module off for both MSAMs. You do not
need to turn OFF the instrument.
NOTE:
If you do not turn the BERT (MSAM) module off, you will lose the settings for
the last test you configured, and your MSAM may not launch the expected test
application automatically when you insert a different PIM.
To swap PIMs
1 Press the SYSTEM/HOME button to display the System screen, then turn the icon
representing the BERT (MSAM) module off. The BERT (MSAM) module can be
toggled on or off by selecting the BERT icon. When off, the icon is grey.
2 Press the Results soft key to go to the MSAM status screen, and then verify that
the module is off by observing the Message bar at the top of the screen. When off,
the message states:
BERT Module OFF
3 After verifying that the BERT (MSAM) module is off, remove the PIM (see
"Removing a PIM" on page
4 Insert the new PIM (see
on page
5 On the System screen, turn the BERT module back on. When on, the icon is
yellow.
The PIMs are swapped.
