How can I access the sbRIO 9606 DIO pins for interfacing sensors like PIR, lm35, LDR etc

I am working with NI sbRIO 9606 for the first time. I need to access the Digital I/O pins for interfacing various sensors. It would be useful if I could have some examples.

The 9606 has no easily accessible digital I/O pins - they all come through the RMC connector. Do you have one of the mezzanine cards which gives you access to the pins on the RMC connector?

Ya, as SAM said, you need to have a RMC card  which has DIO. Once card is physically attached, you will need to add this RMC card to your FPGA target in Labview project, then as usual you will get FPGA IO nodes in the project....

Hi Amaravian,

 

I would also recommend taking a look at the following community. It has several helpful resources for getting started with Single-Board RIO from the hardware side.
