NI-cRIO-9030-1856AAA. If you cannot find the system, refer to the Troubleshooting
Network Communication section.
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-9030. The cRIO-9030 disappears from
under Remote Systems. You will not see it 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.
Controller Startup Options
You can configure controller startup options in MAX. Select the controller under Remote
Systems in the MAX configuration tree, then select the System Settings tab. You can configure
the following options under Startup Settings.
• Force Safe Mode—When you reboot the controller with this setting on, the controller
starts without launching LabVIEW RT or any startup applications. In safe mode, the
controller launches only the services necessary for updating configuration and installing
software.
• Enable Console Out—When you reboot the controller with this setting on, the controller
redirects 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 controller. 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 controller with this setting on prevents any
LabVIEW startup applications from running.
• Disable FPGA Startup App—Rebooting the controller with this setting on prevents
autoloading of any FPGA application.
• Enable Secure Shell (SSH) Logins—Rebooting the controller with this setting on starts
sshd on the controller. Starting sshd enables logins over SSH, an encrypted
communication protocol.
