What If the NI PXIe-8115 Does Not Boot?
Several problems can cause a controller not to boot. Here are some things
to look for and possible solutions.
Things to Notice
•
Which LEDs come on? The
Power OK
LED should stay lit. The
Drive
LED should blink during boot as the disk is accessed.
•
What appears on the display? Does it hang at some particular point
(BIOS, Operating System, etc.)? If nothing appears on the screen, try
a different monitor. Does your monitor work with a different PC? If it
hangs, note the last screen output that you saw for reference when
consulting National Instruments technical support.
