permission to add and configure devices in NI InsightCM Systems Manager:
1. Ask the server administrator to add the device to Systems Manager.
2. Ask the administrator if you need to manually provision the device with an IP address
or credentials. If so, obtain a USB drive that contains the connection information file.

When you apply power to the controller, it starts up:
1. The POWER LED is lit while the device is powered on to indicate that the power
supply connected to the chassis is adequate.
2. After the device boots, the USER1 LED flashes steadily to indicate normal operation.
If you have access to NI InsightCM Systems Manager, make sure the device connects to
NI InsightCM Server successfully:
1. Browse to

If instructed by the server administrator, complete the following steps to manually
provision the device:
1. Insert the USB drive with the connection information in the USB port on the controller.
2. The USER1 LED lights solid, which indicates that the device is reading network and
connection properties.
You can remove the USB drive when the USER1 LED returns to blinking steadily.
