Tools Required

• Pozidriv screwdriver

Removal

Step 1. Remove all cables (GPIB cable, IEEE-1394 cable, and serial cable) from the PC.

Step 2. Remove GPIB card from the PC.

Step 3. Remove IEEE-1394 card from the PC.

Replacement

Step 1. Install the Agilent E5023A software including Agilent I/O Library into the PC. See

Chapter 5, “Software Recovery,” on page 133 for the installation procedure.

NOTE You must install Agilent I/O Library into the PC before installing the GPIB and IEEE-1394

cards.

Step 2. Install the GPIB card which was used for the old PC into a PCI slot of the new PC.

Step 3. Install the IEEE-1394 card which was used for the old PC into a PCI slot of the new PC.

NOTE Generally, you can install a PCI card into any slot in the PC. However, the card position

might cause the problem in case of combination of GP-IB and IEEE-1394 cards.

From the rear view, the IEEE-1394 card must be installed in the most upper (or left) slot

and the GP-IB card must be installed in the second slot from the top (or left).

There is a cable on the IEEE-1394 PCI card to supply power from the connector on the

FDD or the CD-ROM drives. The cable has 4-pin-female connector on one side and has a

4-pin-female and another 4-small-pin-female connectors on the other side in order to split

the power. The 4-small-pin-female is connect with IEEE-1394 card. When you replace the

IEEE-1394 card, you have to remove the cable from the defective PC, too. Then install

them into a new PC.

Step 4. Connect GPIB cable, IEEE-1394 cable, and serial cable to the PC. See “PC (System

Controller) Replacement” on page 104 for how to connect those cables.
