NI sbRIO-9601/9602/9602XT User Guide
1.
Remove the MINI-COMBICON plug from connector J3 of the
NI sbRIO device. Refer to Figure 4 for the location of J3.
2.
Connect the positive lead of the power supply to the V terminal of
the MINI-COMBICON plug.
3.
Connect the negative lead of the power supply to the C terminal of
the MINI-COMBICON plug.
4.
Re-install the MINI-COMBICON connector in connector J3.
Powering On the NI sbRIO Device
The NI sbRIO device runs a power-on self test (POST) when you apply
power to the device. During the POST, the Power and Status LEDs turn on.
When the Status LED turns off, the POST is complete. If the LEDs do not
behave in this way when the system powers on, refer to the
You can configure the device to launch an embedded stand-alone
LabVIEW RT application each time it is booted. Refer to the
Running a
Stand-Alone Real-Time Application (RT Module)
topic of the
LabVIEW
Help
for more information.
Boot Options
Table 2 lists the reset options available on NI sbRIO devices. These options
determine how the FPGA behaves when the device is reset in various
conditions. Use the RIO Device Setup utility to select reset options. Access
the RIO Device Setup utility by selecting
Start»All Programs»National
Instruments»NI-RIO»RIO Device Setup
.
Note
If you want a VI to run when loaded to the FPGA, complete the following steps.
1.
Right-click the FPGA Target item in the
Project Explorer
window in

Behavior
Do not autoload VI
Does not load the FPGA bit stream from flash memory.
Autoload VI on device powerup
Loads the FPGA bit stream from flash memory to the FPGA
when the device powers on.
Autoload VI on device reboot
Loads the FPGA bit stream from flash to the FPGA when you
reboot the device either with or without cycling power.
