software.
After installation of the software the controller will automatically reboot
and you will now be able to program it using LabVIEW Real-Time.
Use the LabVIEW RT configuration switches to configure LabVIEW RT
if it is installed on the controller. If you are not using LabVIEW RT, these
switches should remain in the OFF position. The controller reads these
switches only after a system reset.
The NI PXI-8110 controller includes the following LabVIEW RT
configuration switches:
•
Switch 1—Boot LabVIEW RT: Set this switch to ON to boot
LabVIEW RT.
•
Switch 2—Boot Safe Mode: Set this switch to ON to boot
LabVIEW RT into safe mode to reconfigure TCP/IP settings and
to download or update software from a host computer. This switch
overrides the behavior of Switch 1. Booting the controller into safe
mode does not start the embedded LabVIEW RT engine. After
changing the settings or software, reboot the controller with this switch
OFF to resume normal operation.
•
Switch 3—Disable Startup VI: Set this switch to ON to prevent VIs
from automatically running at startup if the controller becomes
inaccessible because of a startup VI.
•
Switch 4—Reset IP Address: Set this switch to ON to reset the
IP address and other TCP/IP settings to their factory defaults. Use this
switch if moving the controller to a different subnet or if the current
TCP/IP settings are valid.
