Sleep Mode (CompactRIO Only)

You can enable sleep mode for the CompactRIO system in
software. In sleep mode, the system consumes less power and
may dissipate less heat. Typically, when a system is in sleep
mode, you cannot communicate with the modules. Refer to the

Specifications

 section for more information about power

consumption and thermal dissipation.

Specifications

The following specifications are typical for the range -40 °C to
70 °C unless otherwise noted.

Maximum baud rate

3.6864 Mbps

Maximum module
throughput

1.28 Mbps

Maximum cable length

1.2 km (4,000 ft)
