Introduction System Controller The Agilent Digital Test Console requires a system controller PC. A system controller centrally configures and reports test results from multiple chassis. The system controller PC communicates with a chassis via the chassis manager’s PCIe interface, so the system controller must have a PCIe interface.
Introduction Application Blade An application blade connects to a System Under Test (SUT), injects test data, and makes real-time measurements. Application blades in the Agilent Digital Test Console have the following common components: OOS (Out of Service) Indicates blade health: •...

Step 2: Set up the U4002A 2-slot chassis. If you are using the U4002A 2-slot chassis in a portable application, attach the plastic bumpers and handle. If you are using it in a lab, attach the rackmount brackets and mount onto a rack.
Rackmounting The following rackmounting options are possible: • 4-post rack—With the U4002A 2-slot chassis, the brackets are provided separately (N5650-00035) and must be attached to the chassis before rackmounting. • 4-post shelf—You can order a kit (E3664AC), which provides rails that attach to the front and back posts in a 4-post rack, forming a shelf onto which you can slide the chassis.
To minimize electrostatic damage, take the necessary anti-static precautions. Both chassis provide a grounding terminal, to which you can connect a wrist strap. To locate this terminal, see “U4002A 2-Slot Chassis" on page Agilent Digital Test Console Installation Guide...
Hardware Installation To manage cables The Agilent Digital Test Console has high-density blades that provide many connectors, each of which can have an attached cable. To facilitate the insertion and removal of blades, neatly route cables around the chassis. Doing this enables you to insert and remove blades without having to navigate a web of cables crossing the fronts of blades.
Step 2: Set up the U4002A 2-slot chassis To rackmount the U4002A 2-slot chassis The U4002A 2-slot chassis ships with plastic bumpers that slide onto the front and back of the chassis, and a handle that attaches to the bumpers on the left side of the chassis.

Hardware Installation To attach the 2-slot brackets The U4002A 2-slot chassis ships with brackets (N5650-00035) that attach to the sides of the chassis and front two posts of a 4-post rack. Use a Torx T10 screwdriver with a torque of 1.37 Nm or 14 kgf-cm (12.15 lbs-in) to attach the two rackmount brackets to both sides of the...
Do not operate in a vertical orientation. To begin using the U4002A 2-slot chassis, you need to connect the system controller. For details, see “Step 4: Set up a system controller" on page The following options are also available for the U4002A 2-slot chassis: •...

Hardware Installation To attach the bumpers If the U4002A 2-slot chassis does not have its plastic bumpers (for example, it was previously rackmounted), you must install them first. For instructions, see “To attach the bumpers" on page Align the bumper with the front of the chassis and make sure that the bumper feet are facing the bottom of the chassis.
Hardware Installation Step 3: Insert and remove blades The blades are not hot swappable: You must power down the chassis to insert or remove blades. Empty Slots—Do not operate the chassis with empty slots. • C AUTIO N Always insert a filler blade (N5650-00080) or application blade into empty slots.
Hardware Installation To insert a blade into the chassis The chassis has guide rails for each slot in the chassis: Guide Slot rail number If there are blades that will be removed often, insert them into the topmost slots. For tips on keeping cables tidy, see “To manage cables"...

Hardware Installation Push the blade into the chassis. For application blades, push until the ejector levers are pressed up against the chassis. Nudge the blade gently to allow the levers to engage. Using your thumbs, press inwards firmly until the blade is seated firmly in the backplane.
Hardware Installation Tighten the retaining screws on either end of the blade. Blades are grounded through the chassis. Tightening the retaining C AU T ION screws ensures the ground connection. To remove a blade from the chassis Loosen the retaining screws on both ends of the blade. For application blades, extend the ends of both levers, by pulling them inwards towards each other.
Hardware Installation Step 4: Set up a system controller The system controller is typically a laptop PC with an ExpressCard PCIe adapter, but it could also be a desktop PC or any other PC with a PCIe interface. To set up a laptop controller laptop controller chassis...
Hardware Installation Step 5: Power up the system To power up the U4002A 2-slot chassis Insert the AC power cord into the inlet at the rear of the chassis. Plug the power cord into a power source. Push the circuit breaker to the right, which is the ON position.
Hardware Installation To power down the chassis To power down the chassis, press the power button. The blue LED in the power button turns off and the cooling fans stop rotating. Powering down a chassis places it in standby mode. The W AR N I NG chassis still receives electrical current and can pose an electrical shock risk (for example, in the event of flooding).
Hardware Installation Step 6: Troubleshoot problems When you power up the chassis, the chassis does the following: • Lights the blue LED inside the power button. • Rotates the cooling fans. • Boots up and runs the chassis manager. • Boots up any inserted application blades. To troubleshoot powerup problems If the chassis or a blade does not appear to have power, check the following:...
Hardware Installation To diagnose LEDs The LEDs on the chassis manager use the following LEDs during powerup. Blade Color When lit, indicates ... chassis manager STATUS Green The chassis manager has powered up, passed its self test, and detects no serious problems in the chassis.
PC, double-click the .exe file, and follow its installation instructions. Application Software Troubleshooting There are known problems with PCI Express bus enumeration on some controller PCs.
