PCIe slot to provide a high performance link between the computer and a PXIe or AXIe chassis. The M9048A/B and M9049A host adapters include a PCIe switch and clock isolation for a high-quality clock source driven down the PCIe cable to the PXIe or AXIe chassis for a consistent Gen 2 or Gen 3 link independent of the remote computer.
Step 1: Unpack and Inspect the Module Step 1: Unpack and Inspect the Module Keysight’s PXIe Modules are shipped in materials that prevent static electricity damage. The modules should only be removed from the packaging in an anti-static area ensuring that correct anti-static precautions are taken.
Step 1: Unpack and Inspect the Module After unpacking the module, verify that all items listed on the packing list are included. Inspect the module for shipping damage. Save all packing material for storage or return shipment to Keysight. If you need to return the module Should it become necessary to return a Keysight module for repair or service, follow the steps below: Review the warranty information shipped with your product.
Step 2: Verify Shipment Contents Step 2: Verify Shipment Contents Your shipment should have included the following: - The Keysight M904x module that you ordered. - Keysight Product Software and Information CD. The most current version of Keysight IO Libraries is required prior to installing and running any other software.
Open the PC (remove the PC cover) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Remove the M9048A/B Adapter from its protective bag. Observe normal Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions. Keysight's M9048A comes with a standard PCIe faceplate preinstalled. If you need to replace the faceplate with the low profile faceplate, carefully remove the two mounting screws to remove the faceplate.

Step 3: Install the Host Adapter in the Host PC M9048A switch settings Keysight’s M9048A has two banks of switches, SW1 and SW2. The default switch settings are shown in the graphic below. Make certain the switches on your module are set according to the picture below. These switches are for testing purposes or reserved for future use.
Step 3: Install the Host Adapter in the Host PC M9048B switch settings Keysight's M9048B has one bank of switches labeled SW1. The default switch settings are shown below. Figure 4 M9048B Default Switch Positions M9048B Switch Settings Switch3 Switch4 Target Speed for both ports and the PCIe slot is Gen3.
Step 3: Install the Host Adapter in the Host PC M9049A Installation Turn off both the host PC and the AXIe or PXIe chassis. Make certain that the AC line power is removed from the host PC or the PC may awaken unexpectedly.
Step 3: Install the Host Adapter in the Host PC LEDs Module LED functions are as follows: LED Ind ication Status LED off. No link LED blinks at 0.5 LED blinks at 1.0 LED constant on (single has been made Hz rate means Link Hz rate means Link means Link in Gen...
Step 3: Install the Host Adapter in the Host PC Switches Keysight's M9049A has one bank of switches, SW1. The default switch settings are all Off as shown in Figure 6. These switches set the mode of the two ports as well as the target speed as shown in the table below.

Step 3: Install the Host Adapter in the Host PC x16 Target Mode Gen 3 x8 Host mode Gen 3 (default) Figure 6 M9049A Default Switch Positions The default switch positions allow you to connect the M9049A to 1 or 2 chassis each with an x8 connection.
Remote Chassis Power On and PCIe Wake Remote Chassis Power On and PCIe Wake PCIe Wake refers to a signal placed on the PCIe link when the chassis powers-on that turns on the host PC. Remote chassis power-on is a when the host PC turns on the chassis using the PCIe sideband CPWRON signal.
Remote Chassis Power On and PCIe Wake Chassis Power-On Generated by the Host PC When the chassis receives the Chassis Power-On (CPWRON) signal, its behavior is determined by the CPWRON switch setting on the System Module (M9022A, M9023A, or M9024A) installed in the chassis. If the switch is set to Enable, the chassis powers on when the signal is received.
Connecting a PC to a PXIe or AXIe Chassis Connecting a PC to a PXIe or AXIe Chassis The following examples show a few of the possible configurations between a PC (both PXIe embedded PC and an external PC) and a PXIe or AXIe chassis. Many other configurations are possible.
Connecting a PC to a PXIe or AXIe Chassis External PC to two chassis configuration Another simple system consists of a remote PC with a Dual Port PCIe Host Adapter card (such as the Keysight M9049A) connected to two PXIe or AXIe chassis.
Connecting a PC to a PXIe or AXIe Chassis External PC, x16 connection to single PXIe chassis configuration The following configuration represents the fastest speed (x16) between the PC and the chassis. Make certain that all switches on the M9049A and the M9023A interface modules are set correctly to configure this operation.
0° C – 55° C Temperature * The M9048A is designed to be compatible with most Gen 3 PCIe computer slots but the link will train to Gen 2. ** Contact Keysight for information about longer optical cable support. Related Products...
If power is applied and the switches are set correctly, and either the LEDS are not lit or are lit incorrectly, the module may be defective. Replacement part numbers are as follows: Module Replacement Part Number M9048A M9048-66101 M9048B M9048-66102 M9049A...
