Control cRIO-9047

Hi all,

 

Apologies if this comes off as trivial question! 

 

I am trying to control a cRIO-9047 with LabVIEW in order to output specific voltages based on a feedback loop from temperature sensors. I have been trying to connect to the cRIO-9047 for sometime now but can't seem to get any luck. As of now I have it connected to my desktop via the Dual Role USB-C port. I have also installed the NI CompactRIO and have all of my drivers and software up to date.

 

Looking at NI MAX it appears under the Remote System heading, and appears in Targets and Devices when I create a new project. However once I try to add it to the project a Discovery Status pop-up appears saying the device could not be discovered. From my understanding, this could be coming from how I don't have Real-Time installed and my NI MAX states the cRIO-9047 is in safe mode. I've been trying to follow tutorials online but haven't had much luck, AI's have been useless too, and I've tried tricking around IP address and other configurations but had no luck.

 

I wont lie I've very little background in this so I would greatly appreciate any help or advice you may have!

 

Thanks,

 

Thomas

When you open NI-MAX look at the software/driver version on your laptop and also on your cRIO device. 

To check versions on Laptop open NI-MAX and go to -> My System ->Software

To check version on the cRIO (with it plugged in) go to -> Remote System -> your device -> Software.

Make sure the software versions and driver version are the same. Also, try adding incoming/outgoing exception for the port your device is using via firewall settings on your laptop
