Multiple 70900A modules?

Is it possible to have multiple 70900A modules in a set-up?

I have one 70001 w/ 70205 display, 70902 IF, 70900 LO, 70904 RF, and 70621 RF pre-amp.
I just purchased a second unit w/ 70310 Freq Ref, 70902 IF, 70903 IF, 70900 LO, 70904 RF, and 70300 Tracking Gen.

I'd like to hook them together, but I can't seem to find a way to make everything happy.

Everything in the first rack is at column 18/19 (display is at 4), the second rack at 20/21.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi -

The 70900A/B is the controller for a Modular Spectrum Analyzer. You should just have one 70900B and one RF and one each of the IF sections in order to just have a single analyzer. Multiple 70900A/Bs can’t communicate with each other.

I figured that they wouldn't be able to talk directly, but I'd like to be able to control either of the 70900A's from the 70205. The use case is that we have a couple of the 70000 mainframes, but only one chassis (without a display) that has the tracking generator. Thus, that chassis may move...

Thanks!
