cRIO Doesn't Show Up In The Distributed Systems Manager

[xkenneth]

All,

 Any idea why my cRIO wouldn't show up in the distributed systems manager? I'm running Real Time 3.2.1 and I've already deployed my shared variables. I can see the cRIO through MAX and with my project just fine.

Hi Ken,

I have a couple of questions/things we can try:

1.  How are you connected to the cRIO? (Crossover, switch, router with DHCP)

2.  Are you able to manually add the cRIO by IP Address to My Systems?  (Right-click My systems, select Add Systems..., type in the IP Address and select OK.)

3.  Are the shared variables hosted on the cRIO?  If not, do you see the Shared Variables in the Distributed System Manager?

4.  Try enabling CPU Load Monitoring through the cRIO Target Properties in the LabVIEW Project (Right-click cRIO, select Properties, go to Miscellaneous and check Enable CPU Load Monitoring, deploy the settings and reboot the cRIO).

5.  If you already had Distributed System Manager, does pressing F5 to refresh help? 

Finally, I would like to know what version of Distributed System Manager/LabVIEW you are using.

hi,

I was just having similar trouble trying to view the system state of my cRIO.  It was because I hadn't installed System State Publisher on my cRIO.

Just posting incase anybody has same issue.
