• Int: an internal supplied 100 MHz reference clock.
• Int SSC: an internal supplied Spread Spectrum Clock.
Power Select switch: Selects between the internal power supply and the external power
jacks on the back of the emulator. When External power is selected, both 3.3V and 12V
supplies must be provided by the user via the banana jacks on the back of the emulator.
Emulator Power LED: Lights when emulator is powered on.
PCIE Slot Power LED: Lights when the PCI Express connector on the Host Emulator is
supplying power. Power can be provided either via the internal power supply or by an
external power supply via the banana jacks on the back of the emulator. If an external

Installing the Host Emulation Test Fixture
Step 1 If not already powered off, power off the Summit Z2-16 system and the
DUT.
Step 2 Insert the male edge connector of the DUT into the PCI Express slot on
top of the Host Emulation Test Fixture.
Step 3 Attach a probe data cable to the Rx/Tx 0-7 port on the Host Emulator and
the To Device (7:0) port on Summit Z2-16.
Step 4 For x16 configuration, attach a second probe data cable to the
Rx/Tx 8-15 port on the Host Emulator and the To Device (15:8) port on
Summit Z2-16.
Step 5 If the DUT is a 150 watts or less device, such as a graphics card, you
may connect the card’s external power cables to the two external power
ports on top of the Host Emulator.
Final Steps: Power on the Exerciser and then DUT
Important: Power on the Exerciser before you power on the DUT.
Step 1 Power on the Summit Z2-16 Exerciser. The Exerciser's green power
LED lights, and the red Status LED turns on for approximately one
minute while the Exerciser performs self-diagnostics.
Step 2 If testing a motherboard, power on the motherboard. If testing a
PCI-Express device such as a graphics card, power on the
Host Emulator.
Step 3 Open the PETracer application on the host machine. The Exerciser is
now ready for traffic generation.
