Troubleshooting
Why Is the ACCESS LED Off When the Chassis is On?
The LEDs may not illuminate until the device has been configured in MAX. Before
proceeding, verify that the NI 5114 appears in MAX.
If the ACCESS LED fails to illuminate after you power on the chassis, a problem may exist
with the chassis power rails, a hardware module, or the LED.
Caution
Apply external signals only while the NI 5114 is powered on. Applying
external signals while the device is powered off may cause damage.
1.
Disconnect any signals from the module front panels.
2.
Power off the chassis.
3.
Remove the module from the chassis and inspect it for damage. Do not reinstall a
damaged device.
4.
Install the module in a different chassis slot from which you removed it.
5.
Power on the chassis.
6.
Verify that the device appears in MAX.
7.
Reset the device in MAX and perform a self-test.
