Connect USB Cable and Power on the Analyzer and DUTs
Step 1 If not already connected, connect the provided USB cable between the
USB port on the Edge card and a USB port on the host machine that runs
the PETracer software.
Step 2 If not already connected, connect the external 12-volt power supply to
the Edge card.
Step 3 Connect the external 12-volt power supply to a 100-volt to 240-volt,
50 Hz to 60 Hz, 60 W power outlet. This turns on the Analyzer, which has
no power switch.
Step 4 After 20 seconds, power on the PCI Express device under test.
Step 5 Open the PETracer software on the host machine. The Edge card is now
ready for PCI Express traffic recording.
3.4 Networking an Analyzer
PETracer™ has a networking capability that allows users to run an Analyzer remotely
over an IP-based LAN. Using the Network browse dialog, you can locate and connect to
other host machines on the LAN, which, in turn, are connected to Analyzers. Through this
connection, you can remotely control an Analyzer.
Setup for IP LAN Use
In order to connect to a remote Analyzer, the Analyzer must be attached to a host
machine that is on the LAN. This host machine must have PETracer installed.
