Appendix A
Installing Analyzers with Default Configurations
These instructions are for installing a second analyzer with a default configuration to a
computer that already has an analyzer (Unit #1) installed.
1. Connect the ethernet switch (refer to the manufacturer's manual for instructions).
2. Exit the analysis program (if operating) and turn the installed analyzer (Unit #1) off.
3. Disconnect the Ethernet crossover cable that is currently connected to the analyzer and
computer, and store in a safe place.
4. Connect one end of a straight Ethernet cable to the Ethernet card (exposed on the back
side of the computer) and the other end to a port on the Ethernet switch.
5. Connect one end of a straight Ethernet cable to the connector labeled Ethernet on the
rear panel of Unit #1 and the other end to a port on the Ethernet switch.
6. Turn the analyzer on.
7. Start the analysis program. This step is simply to ensure that all cable connections are
secure. If the program fails to initialize the communications link, check cable
connections.
8. Exit the analysis program.
9. Disconnect the Ethernet cable for Unit #1 from the Ethernet switch; do not disconnect the
cable from the analyzer.
10. Connect one end of another straight Ethernet cable to the connector labeled Ethernet on
the rear panel of Unit #2 and the other end to a port on the Ethernet switch.
11. Turn Unit #2 on.
12. Start the analysis program. The analysis program does not know that a second unit has
been attached at this time; therefore, all unit references still display as Unit #1. Because
of this, you may receive Error Message 6133; simply click to clear the message.

14. Select Unit configuration from the Unit 1 menu; the Unit Configuration dialog is
