Configuring the cRIO-9035

You can connect the cRIO-9035 to a host computer or network and configure the startup

options using the USB device port or the RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet port 1.

Tip Refer to the getting started guide on ni.com/manuals for basic configuration

instructions and information about connecting to a host computer using the USB

device port. NI recommends using the USB device port for configuration, debug,

and maintenance.

Connecting the cRIO-9035 to the Host Computer or

Network Using Ethernet

Complete the following steps to connect the cRIO-9035 to a host computer or Ethernet

network using the RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet port 1. NI recommends using the RJ-45 Gigabit

Ethernet port 1 for communication with deployed systems.

Note You can configure the RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet port 2 in Measurement &

Automation Explorer (MAX) under the Network Settings tab.

1. Power on the host computer or Ethernet hub.

2. Connect the RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet port 1 on the cRIO-9035 to the host computer or

Ethernet hub using a standard Category 5 (CAT-5) or better shielded, twisted-pair

Ethernet cable.

Caution To prevent data loss and to maintain the integrity of your Ethernet

installation, do not use a cable longer than 100 m (328 ft).

The cRIO-9035 attempts to initiate a DHCP network connection the first time you

connect using Ethernet. The cRIO-9035 connects to the network with a link-local IP

address with the form 169.254.x.x if it is unable to initiate a DHCP connection.

Finding the cRIO-9035 on the Network (DHCP)

Complete the following steps to find the cRIO-9035 on a network using DHCP.

1. Disable secondary network interfaces on the host computer, such as a wireless access

card on a laptop.

2. Ensure that any anti-virus and firewall software running on the host computer allows

connections to the host computer.

Note MAX uses UDP 44525. Refer to the documentation of your firewall

software for information about configuring the firewall to allow communication

through the UDP 44525.

3. Launch MAX on the host computer.

4. Expand Remote Systems in the configuration tree and locate your system.

Tip MAX lists the system under the model number followed by the serial

number, such as NI-CRIO-9035-1856AAA.

Finding the cRIO-9035 on the Network (Static IP)

Complete the following steps to find the cRIO-9035 on the network if the host computer is

using a static IP address. The following instructions are for host computers running

Windows 7. For more information about performing the network configuration steps in this

section, visit www.microsoft.com and search for change tcp/ip settings.

1. Obtain IP settings from the host computer.

a) Click Start»Control Panel»Network and Sharing Center.

b) Select the primary network connection, which may appear as Local Area

Connection or something similar.

c) In the dialog box that appears, click Properties.

d) Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4).

e) Click Properties.

f) Record the IP address, Subnet mask, and Default gateway address. You need

these settings to configure the network settings of the cRIO-9035 and to restore the

network settings of the host computer.

Tip You can also access these settings by opening the Start menu,

entering cmd.exe, and entering ipconfig in the command window that

launches.

g) Wait at least one minute.

2. Configure IP Settings on the controller in MAX.

a) Launch MAX on the host computer.

b) Expand Remote Systems in the configuration tree and locate your system.

Tip MAX lists the system under the model number followed by the serial

number, such as NI-CRIO-9035-1856AAA.

4| ni.com | NI cRIO-9035 User Manual

c) Select the Network Settings tab near the bottom of the window.

d) Select Static on the Configure IPv4 Address control.

e) Enter values for IPv4 Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server based on

the information you recorded. Be sure to enter a value for IPv4 Address that is not

used by another device on the network. For example, do not use the IP address

usually assigned to the host computer.

f) Click Save and let MAX restart the cRIO-9035. The cRIO-9035 disappears from

under Remote Systems and does not reappear until you restore the original network

settings to the host computer.

g) Restore the original network settings to the host computer.

h) Return to MAX and refresh Remote Systems.

Configuring Startup Options

Complete the following steps to configure the cRIO-9035 startup options in MAX.

1. In MAX, expand your system under Remote Systems.

2. Select the Startup Settings tab to configure the startup settings.

cRIO-9035 Startup Options

You can configure the following cRIO-9035 startup options.

Table 1. cRIO-9035 Startup Options

Startup Option Description

Force Safe Mode Rebooting the cRIO-9035 with this setting on starts the cRIO-9035

without launching LabVIEW Real-Time or any startup applications. In

safe mode, the cRIO-9035 launches only the services necessary for

updating configuration and installing software.

Enable Console

Out

Rebooting the cRIO-9035 with this setting on redirects the console output

to the RS-232 serial port. You can use a serial-port terminal program to

read the IP address and firmware version of the cRIO-9035. Use a null-

modem cable to connect the RS-232 serial port to a computer. Make sure

that the serial-port terminal program is configured to the following

settings:

• 115,200 bits per second

• Eight data bits

• No parity

• One stop bit

• No flow control

Disable RT

Startup App

Rebooting the cRIO-9035 with this setting on prevents any LabVIEW

startup applications from running.

Startup Option Description

Disable FPGA

Startup App

Rebooting the cRIO-9035 with this setting on prevents autoloading of any

FPGA application.

Enable Secure

Shell (SSH)

Logins

Rebooting the cRIO-9035 with this setting on starts sshd on the

cRIO-9035. Starting sshd enables logins over SSH, an encrypted

communication protocol.

Note Visit ni.com/info and enter the Info Code openssh for

more information about SSH.

LabVIEW

Project Access

Rebooting the cRIO-9035 with this setting on enables you to add the

target to a LabVIEW project.

Enable

Embedded UI

Rebooting the cRIO-9035 with this setting on enables the embedded UI,

which allows you to interact with the front panels of VIs running on the

cRIO-9035 using input and display devices connected directly to the

cRIO-9035. You can also browse and edit files on the cRIO-9035 within a

graphical working environment. For more information, refer to the Using

the Embedded UI to Access RT Target VIs topic in the LabVIEW Help.

Caution The C terminals are internally connected to each other, but are not

connected to chassis ground. This isolation is intended to prevent ground loops and

does not meet UL ratings for safety isolation. You can connect the C terminals to

chassis ground externally. Refer to the specifications on ni.com/manuals for

information about the power supply input range and maximum voltage from

terminal to chassis ground.

If you apply power to both the V1 and V2 inputs, the cRIO-9035 operates from the V1 input.

If the input voltage to V1 is insufficient, the cRIO-9035 operates from the V2 input.

The cRIO-9035 has reverse-voltage protection.

The following NI power supplies and accessories are available for the cRIO-9035.
