Step 1: Set Up The Real Time System; Step 2: Connect Ni 9514/16 To Akd Drive Cable To The C Series Module - National Instruments C Series Getting Started

Step 1: Set Up the Real Time System

Complete the following steps to set up the CompactRIO hardware.
1. Refer to the Getting Started guide included with the Real-Time controller to assemble it,
connect it to power, discover it on the network, and install the software in NI MAX.
2. Install the NI 9514 or NI 9516 module in an available slot that supports High Speed
Interface (HSI) in your chassis.
Older model chassis, such as cRIO-902x, cRIO-907x, cRIO-908x, NI 9144,
Note
and NI 9148, have HSI support on slots 1 through 4. Refer to your chassis
documentation for more information about HSI slot support.
Step 2: Connect NI 9514/16 to AKD Drive Cable to the
C Series Module
Connect the MDR and DSUB connectors on the NI 9514/16 to AKD Drive Cable (part number
781524-01) to the MDR and DSUB connectors on the C Series module. Figure 3 shows the
NI 9514/16 to AKD Drive Cable connectors.
