.
3.
Connect the secondary port of your EtherCAT Master directly to the IN port (top port) on
the NI 9144 chassis using a standard Category 5 Ethernet cable. If you are using the
NI cRIO-9074 as your EtherCAT Master, the secondary port is top port (LAN PORT #2).
If you are using a PXI system, you must add a PXI-8231/8232 network card for the
secondary port. You may expand the deterministic Ethernet network by connecting an
additional NI 9144 chassis or other slave devices to the OUT port (bottom port) on the first
NI 9144 chassis.
