LED Indicator
The NI USB-9213 device has a green LED next to the USB connector. The
LED indicator indicates device status, as listed in Table 2. When the device
is connected to a USB port, the LED blinks steadily to indicate that the
device is initialized and is receiving power from the connection.
If the LED is not blinking, it may mean that the device is not initialized or the
computer is in standby mode. In order for the device to be recognized, the
device must be connected to a computer that has NI-DAQmx installed on it.
If your device is not blinking, make sure your computer has the latest version
of NI-DAQmx installed on it, and the computer is not in standby mode.
