Appendix - Verify Instruments Connect Pass Self-Test are Updated

Before you attempt to programmatically control any hardware and make
measurements, connect to each of the instrument soft front panels, one at a time,
perform self-test, and verify their FPGA firmware is fully updated. If any firmware
updates are made, perform the self-test again.
In the following procedures, each instrument connection must be verified, each
instrument must pass self-test, and each instrument's firmware version should be
checked and updated if needed.
Verify that VSG 1 is Connected, Passes Self-Test, and Contains
up to Date Firmware
1. Select Start > All Programs > Keysight > M938x > M9381 SFP and run the soft
front panel of the M9381A PXIe VSG - connect to VSG #1 and the M9300A PXIe
Reference.
2. Run self-test.
3. Check firmware and update if necessary.
4. Close the Firmware Update dialog box if no firmware updates are necessary.If
firmware updates are required, install the updates, shut down the computer, cycle
power on the M9018A PXIe Chassis, and repeat this procedure to verify connection,
self-test, and no further firmware updates are necessary.
