Step 3: Install the M9037A Embedded Controller

Removing the M9037A from the chassis

To remove the M9037A controller, reverse the previous procedure. Execute the

Windows shut down process on the controller first. Then power down the

chassis. Loosen the four captive screws, press down on the ejector/injector

handle and pull outwards to release the module from the backplane. Pull the

module towards you until it is free of the chassis.

The M9037A controller, like any PC, will boot with the installed operating system.

Refer to the M9037A User Guide for detailed power on and configuration

sequence information.

The first time the M9037A is powered up, it will prompt you to create a user

password.

As with any PC, Windows-based instruments should not be shutdown by either

turning off the power via an external power source or by pulling the power plug

out from the rear panel. This could corrupt the operating system. The approved

way to shut down the controller is to execute the Windows shutdown process

which shuts down the M9037A controller then turns off the M9018A chassis. If

the M9018A chassis rear panel INHIBIT switch is set to DEF then momentarily

pressing the front panel button shuts down the M9037A safely.

Keysight M9037A PXIe Embedded Controller Startup Guide

Depending on the system configuration, the BIOS may take 90

seconds (or longer) to boot. During this time, the Keysight splash

screen (the Keysight logo) is present and it may appear that

nothing is happening. This is generally caused by the inclusion of

certain devices in the switch fabric (such as RAID controller) that

require a longer time for PCI enumeration.
