Introduction The scope of this Startup Guide is to detail the processes of receiving and installing the network analyzer module and cables that compose the Keysight M937xA PXIe Vector Network Analyzer module. Additionally, installing the required software and verifying network analyzer module operation is documented.
After unpacking a network analyzer module, inspect it for any shipping damage. Report any damage to the shipping agent immediately, as such damage is not covered by the warranty. To avoid damage when handling the network analyzer modules, do not touch exposed connector pins. Keysight Technologies Startup Guide...

Getting Started STEP 3. Install the Software Software Installation Procedure 1. Install the Keysight IO Libraries Suite by downloading it from www.keysight.com/find/iosuite. Follow the installer prompts to install the IO libraries. 2. Install the network analyzer module software by downloading it from http://www.keysight.com/techicalsupport/main.
Operating Conditions — Ensure proper chassis air flow is maintained. — The use of a Keysight M9018A chassis is recommended for optimum temperature control. If a different chassis is used, make sure it provides thermal protection if fans become inoperable or forced air cooling is obstructed.
6. Holding the module by the injector/ejector handle, slide it into a slot, as shown in callouts 4 – 6 in Figure 1-3 on page a. Install the module into the slot of the chassis by placing the module card edges into the front module guides (top and bottom). Keysight Technologies Startup Guide...
