connector for the RMC connector from Samtec, the connector manufacturer, or from a distributor such as Arrow or Avnet. The height of the mating connector you select to mate to the RMC connector determines the height of the standoffs you need. Samtec requires that standoffs be 0.15 mm (0.006 in.) taller than the combined height of the RMC and mating connectors.

RS-485 Serial Port The RS-485 serial port implements a shrouded header, 10-position modular jack to connect displays or input devices. Use Serial VIs to read from and write to the serial port. Refer to the LabVIEW Help for information about the Serial VIs. Find examples on how to use NI-Serial or NI-VISA to perform serial communication in the NI Example Finder.

Mounting a sbRIO-962x/sbRIO-963x Model with a Thermal Conduction Path If possible, NI recommends that you mount the sbRIO-962x/sbRIO-963x on a panel or plate, such that a thermal solution provides a conduction path from the primary side components and is secured to or made from the panel or plate. Figure 33.
Figure 35. sbRIO-960x Front Mounting Holes 1. Front Mounting Holes Figure 36. sbRIO-962x/sbRIO-963x Front Mounting Holes 1. Front Mounting Holes The front I/O connector shields, chassis ground bracket, and mounting holes near the front I/O are connected together internally to form chassis ground. Chassis ground is capacitively coupled to digital ground near each of the IO connectors.
Power off the power supply. Install the ferrite on the negative and positive leads of the power supply. Pass the leads through the ferrite twice. Note Leave 50 mm to 75 mm (2 in. to 3 in.) between the ferrite and the end of the leads.

If you have recently upgraded LabVIEW, you must reinstall NI CompactRIO Device Drivers. • Ensure that the NI USBLAN adapter is recognized in the Device Manager. Select Start» Control Panel»Device Manager»Network adapters»National Instruments»USBLAN adapter. If the USBLAN adapter is not recognized, you must reinstall NI CompactRIO Device Drivers. Note For Windows 10, you may need to search for the Control Panel as it not always available from the Start Menu.
