Troubleshooting Network Communication in
NI cDAQ-9138/9139 for LabVIEW Real-Time Chassis
If the controller cannot communicate with the network, you can use the IP RESET DIP switch
to manually restore the controller to the default network settings. When you reboot the controller
with the IP RESET DIP switch in the ON position, the controller attempts to connect to the
network using DHCP. If the controller is unable to obtain an IP address, it connects to the
network with a link-local IP address with the form
169.254.x.x
.
Complete the following steps to restore the controller to the default network settings.
1.
Move the IP RESET DIP switch to the ON position.

Push the RESET button to cycle power to the cDAQ chassis.
