Fasten the panel mounting plate to the chassis using a number 2 Phillips screwdriver and three M4 × 23 screws, as shown in Figure 8. National Instruments provides these screws with the panel mounting kit. You must use these screws because they are the correct depth and thread for the panel mounting plate.
Fasten the DIN rail clip to the chassis using a number 2 Phillips screwdriver and two M4 × 25 flathead screws, as shown in Figure 9. National Instruments provides these screws with the DIN rail mounting kit. Tighten the screws to a maximum torque of 1.3 N ·...
I/O modules. Align the I/O module with an I/O module slot in the chassis, as shown in Figure 12. The module slots are labeled 1 to 8, left to right. 10 | ni.com | CompactRIO cRIO-9066/cRIO-9067 Operating Instructions...
After the initial powerup, you must install software on the chassis and Note configure system settings in Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) as described in the Configuring the System in MAX section of this document. 12 | ni.com | CompactRIO cRIO-9066/cRIO-9067 Operating Instructions...
