6 Dual Probe Pod Setup Using External Clocking

The steps outlined above describe a single Probe/single analyzer configuration. In a dual analyzer setup,
a second probe may need to be added depending on the type of link that is being recorded.

If the analyzer internal clock is to be used, then cable the target device to the probe pod as follows -
however, omit the 3-pin reference clock cable(s) shown in the illustration.

If external clocking is to be used, using the PE014UCA-X Ref Clock cable, connect the 3-pin reference
clock cable from the 3-pin header on the system board to the CLK IN port on one probe pod. Then using
the PE009UCA-X Daisy Chain Cable, connect the CLK OUT port on that same pod and connect it to the
CLK IN port on the second pod. The setup is shown below.
