3.3 Connecting the PETracer Edge Analyzer to the
Device Under Test
Installing the Edge Card between the Devices Under Test (DUT)
To install the Edge card between the Devices Under Test (DUT), perform the following
steps:
Step 1 If not already powered off, unplug the external 12-volt power supply from
the power outlet and power off the DUTs.
Step 2 Insert the gold male connector on the Edge card into a PCI Express slot
in the motherboard (or whatever board you are testing).
Step 3 Insert the PCI Express DUT into the white female device connector on
the top edge of the Edge card. The Edge card's female device connector
can accommodate an x1, x2, or x4 PCI Express device.
Step 4 The Edge card is shipped from Teledyne LeCroy with a metal face plate
for attachment to a PC case. If you are working with a motherboard that
is not in a PC case, you may prefer to remove the metal face plate so the
Edge card can sit flat with the motherboard. To remove the face plate,
unscrew the two screws that hold it onto the Edge card.
