Teledyne LeCroy PCIe Summit Z3-16 with CLKREQ Quick Start - Manual (Page 3)

Installing the Software
PETracer software operates all of Teledyne LeCroy’s PCI Express protocol Analyzer and Exerciser products:
The PETracer software is installed on a Microsoft
® Windows ® -based host machine and serves as the interface for the Analyzer.
Install the PETracer software on the host machine before attaching the Analyzer to the system:
1.
Insert the CD into the CD ROM drive of the host machine that will control the Analyzer. The installation window opens and displays
links to the software installation, user manuals, app notes and data sheets.
2. Select Install PCIe Protocol Suite and follow the onscreen instructions. The PETracer software installs automatically on the host
machine’s hard disk. During installation, all necessary USB drivers will be installed.
3. To start the application, launch the PETracer program from the Start menu:
Start > All Programs > LeCroy > PETracer > LeCroy PETracer
User manuals for your LeCroy PCIExpress products can be found in:
Start > All Programs > LeCroy > PETracer > PCIe Protocol Suite Documents.
Software installation can also be downloaded from the Teledyne LeCroy website.

Setting Up and Connecting the Summit Z3-16 Exerciser
You can connect the Exerciser to the host machine using USB or Ethernet.
Using an Ethernet Connection
To set up the Exerciser using an Ethernet connection:
1.
Install PETracer software on the host machine.
2. Connect the Exerciser to a 100-volt to 240-volt, 50 Hz to
60 Hz, 120 W power outlet using the provided power cord.
3. Connect the Ethernet cable between the Ethernet port on the
Exerciser and a Ethernet port in the local network.
4. Power on the Exerciser by plugging the 12-V DC power cable
into the Exerciser Card and then into the PCI Express Test
Platform for Summit™ Z3-16 Exerciser with CLKREQ# and
SRIS Support.
Note 1: No driver installation is needed for Summit Z3-16 to
operate over a network.
Note 2: At power-on, the Exerciser initializes and performs a
self-diagnostic.
Note 3: Summit Z3 is configured at the factory to use dynamic IP
setting and will get all required network parameters from the
DHCP server on your network. If the DHCP server is not
available, or to connect Summit Z3 directly to the host
machine, you can reconfigure the network settings through
the PETracer software (see Summit Z3-16 User Manual).
Connecting to Summit Z3-16 in the software
Start the PETracer software and perform the following procedure to
connect to a Summit Z3-16 analyzer over the network.
1.
Select the Setup > All connected devices… menu in the
PETracer application to display the Analyzer Devices dialog.
The Summit devices in the list are marked:
•
Locked: Some other client on the network is already
connected to that device
• Ready to connect: Available for connection
2. Select your Summit Z3 device in the list and press the
Connect button to execute the connection procedure. After
the connection is established, the application displays the
Connection Properties dialog.
3. Select an option:
•
Automatically connect to the device: When the
application is started or when the named device appears
on the network while the PETracer application is running
on this computer, the PETracer application will try to
connect to the named device.
• Ask if I want to connect to the device: When the
application is started or when the named device appears
on the network while the PETracer application is running
on this computer, the PETracer application will display a
message box allowing you to connect to the named
device.
• Take no action: When you start the application or when
the named device appears on the network while the
PETracer application is running on this computer, you
must connect manually to use the named device.
Note: When you close the application on this computer (or
you perform manual disconnect), the application
disconnects from the device.
4. Press OK in the Connection Properties dialog. After you
finish the connect procedure, the Summit Z3-16 to which you
have connected is marked as Ready and you can use it for
recording.
Note: To disconnect from a device, display this dialog,
select the device, and click the Disconnect button.
Note 2: Summit Z3 will not appear in the Analyzer Device dialog
if it is connected on a different Subnet on your local
network. You can connect to it on the Subnet by
specifying its IP address in the Add Device dialog.
