cRIO-9025 Operating Instructions and Specifications
Connecting USB Mass-Storage Devices to the Controller
The cRIO-9025 supports common USB mass-storage devices such as USB
Flash drives and USB-to-IDE adapters formatted with FAT16 and FAT32
file systems. LabVIEW maps USB devices to the
U:
,
V:
,
W:
, or
X:
drive,
starting with the
U:
drive if it is available. You can connect multiple USB
mass-storage devices to the cRIO-9025 if you use a USB hub. Refer to the
LabVIEW Help
for more information.
Note
If the cRIO-9025 is not in a hazardous location, you can connect and disconnect
USB devices without affecting operation.
Configuring DIP Switches
Figure 6.
Controller DIP Switches
All of the DIP switches are in the OFF position when the controller is
shipped from National Instruments.
SAFE MODE Switch
The position of the SAFE MODE switch determines whether the embedded
LabVIEW Real-Time engine launches when the controller boots. If the
switch is in the OFF position, the LabVIEW Real-Time engine launches.
Keep this switch in the OFF position during normal operation. If the switch
is in the ON position when the controller boots, the controller launches only
the essential services required for updating its configuration and installing
software. The LabVIEW Real-Time engine does not launch.
Push the SAFE MODE switch to the ON position if the software on the
controller is corrupted. Even if the switch is not in the ON position, if there
is no software installed on the controller, the controller automatically boots
into safe mode. The SAFE MODE switch must be in the ON position
to reformat the drive on the controller. Refer to the
Measurement &
Automation Explorer Help
for more information about installing software
on the controller and reformatting the drive on the controller.
