PCIe Host Desktop Adapters
Installation Guide
Introduction
The M9048A, M9048B, and M9049A PCIe Host Desktop Adapter modules provide a cabled PCIe link between a PXIe or AXIe chassis and an external host computer. The host desktop adapter cards plug into your remote computer‘s
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. The cards are compatible with desktop or rack-mount computers with either x8 or x16 PCIe expansion slots (mechanical). Use the
Y1202A 2-meter or Y1203A 0.5 meter cables to connect the host adapter cards to any PXIe chassis with a system module or AXIe chassis.
To ensure proper system operation, use an approved host computer (embedded, rack-mount, desktop) along with an approved PCIe adapter and cable. While you may use other controllers, the approved computers have verified hardware support for PCIe x8/x16 and their BIOS can properly enumerate multiple instruments on the shared PCIe bus.
Keysight provides a list of tested host PCs at: www.keysight.com/find/PXIAXIeTestedPC .
The modules provide the following features:
M9048A Single Port PCIe Host Adapter, x8 Gen2 only, 5 GB/s
M9048B Single Port PCIe Host Adapter, x8 up to Gen3, 8 GB/s (Gen3 x8 PC slot)
M9049A Dual Port PCIe Host Adapter, x8 or x16, up to Gen3, 8 GB/s to
16 GB/s (Gen3 x16 PC slot)
You don’t need to install software drivers to use these Host Desktop Adapters modules; the software is already included in the Windows OS.
The M9048B and M9049A are high performance. They run at Gen3 speeds and should only be used with Windows 7 SP1 64bit, Windows 8.1 Update 1 64bit, or
Windows 10.

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. Store all modules in anti-static envelopes when not in use.
ESD
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. All work on electronic assemblies should be performed at a static-safe work station.
The following figure shows an example of a static-safe work station using two types of ESD protection. Purchase acceptable ESD accessories from your local supplier.
Conductive table-mat and wrist-strap combination.
Conductive floor-mat and heel-strap combination.
Both types, when used together, provide a significant level of ESD protection. Of the two, only the table-mat and wrist-strap combination provides adequate
ESD protection when used alone.
To ensure user safety, the static-safe accessories must provide at least 1 M of isolation from ground.
Inspect for damage
After unpacking the module, carefully inspect it for any shipping damage. Report any damage to the shipping agent immediately, as such damage is not covered by the warranty.
To avoid damage when handling a module; do not touch exposed connector pins.

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.
Some PCs BIOSs may have PCIe Wake included under the Wake on
LAN (WoL) setting. If you cannot find a specific BIOS setting for
PCIe Wake, try enabling/disabling the Wake on LAN feature.
PCIe Wake Generated by the Chassis
The Keysight M9010A, M9018B and M9019A PXIe chassis assert the PCIe WAKE signal when they power on. The signal propagates through the PCIe cable to the host PC. Whether or not the host PC powers on when receiving the WAKE signal is controlled by the PC’s BIOS and by the PCIe Host Adapter installed in the PC.
Some PCIe Host Adapters have a switch setting that determines if the adapter passes the signal on to the PC. For information about your PC’s BIOS, consult your PCs documentation.
Early versions of the M9048B and M9049A modules had this feature permanently enabled. To disable this feature, a resistor must be removed from the PC board; contact your local Keysight Service office. Later versions of these two modules have a small DIP switch. The default (from the factory) setting disable the PCIe
Wake feature.
M9048B M9049A
Figure 7 Location of PCIe Wake Switch (disabled, default setting)
Keysight PCIe Host Desktop Adapter Installation Guide 21
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. If the switch is set to Disable, the chassis does not power on. The default setting is Disabled. For information on the Keysight PXI System and Cable Interface Modules, M9021A, M9022A,
M9023A, and M9024A, see the Keysight PXIe System Modules and Cable
Interface Installation Guide .

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. Keysight provides a Multi-Chassis Designer to help you understand and design multi-chassis systems. Click here: www.keysight.com/find/pxie-multichassis .
External PC to a single chassis configuration
The simplest system consists of a remote PC with a PCIe Host Adapter card (such as the Keysight M9048B) connected to a PXIe or AXIe chassis. A PXIe chassis requires a System Module or Cable Interface Module such as the Keysight
M9021A. An AXIe chassis does not require a system module interface, because a cable port is included in the ESM half height module. This configuration has Gen
2 speed.
Figure 8 Basic external PC system configuration
Keysight PCIe Host Desktop Adapter Installation Guide 23
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. A PXIe chassis requires a System Module such as the Keysight M9022A.
An AXIe chassis does not require a system module interface, because a cable port is included in the ESM half height module. The link speed is determined by the chassis; for example, Gen 2 speed with the M9018A PXIe chassis or the
M9502A or M9505A AXIe chassis; Gen 3 speed may be available with Gen 3 PXIe chassis.

Troubleshooting and Service
Troubleshooting and Service
There are no user-serviceable parts on these modules. For troubleshooting, refer to the LED descriptions earlier in this guide. If the LEDs are not lit at all, there may be no power applied. Also, ensure the switches are set correctly.
If you are unable to establish communications from the host controller PC to the chassis, check the following.
– Ensure the appropriate chassis drivers and system module driver are installed on the host controller PC
– A faulty PCIe System Module or Cable Interface card is not plugged into the chassis
– A faulty PCIe cable
– A failure of the chassis power supply
Keysight provides a list of tested host PCs at: www.keysight.com/find/PXIAXIeTestedPC .
A driver is required for the M9022A, M9023A and M9024A modules. Refer to the Keysight PXIe System
Modules and Cable Interface Installation Guide for driver installation information.
The most current version of Keysight IO Libraries is required prior to installing and running any other software. The latest version can be downloaded from: www.keysight.com/find/iosuite .
The additional ports on the M9024A operate like IO ports on the connected PC. For multiple chassis systems with an M9037A
Embedded Controller, a single M9024A may be installed in one of the slave chassis.
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.
