Network
• Ensure that the Ethernet connections between the sbRIO-9607 and the host computer and
the Ethernet connections between the host computer and the router are secure.
• Ensure that you have the correct version of NI CompactRIO Device Drivers installed on
the host computer. Visit
ni.com/info and enter the Info Code softwareversion for the
minimum supported versions of LabVIEW and NI CompactRIO Device Drivers.
Tip
If you have recently upgraded LabVIEW, you must reinstall NI
CompactRIO Device Drivers.
