The power supply should have a maximum output current higher than the current consumption
of the interface board and attached inverters. Refer to the sbRIO-9687 Specifications for the
sbRIO-9687 maximum current consumption.
Complete the following steps to connect a power supply to the device.
Caution Do not mate or unmate the power supply connectors while power is
applied.
1. Ensure that the power supply is powered off.
2. Insert the power connector plug into the power connector receptacle of the sbRIO device
until the connector latches into place.
3. Turn on the power supply.
Powering on the sbRIO-9687
The sbRIO-9687 turns ON immediately after the input power is present. One green LED is
always ON when power is present.
The sbRIO-9607 is powered through sbRIO-9687. The sbRIO-9607 runs a power-on self test
(POST) when it is powered on. During the POST, the Power and Status LEDs activate. The
Status LED turns off when the POST is complete. If the LEDs do not behave in this way when
the system powers on, refer to Troubleshooting.
Connecting the sbRIO-9607 to the Host Computer
Complete the following steps to connect the sbRIO-9607 to the host computer using the RJ-45
Ethernet port.
1. Power on the host computer.
2. Connect the sbRIO-9607 to the host computer using a standard Category 5 (CAT-5) or
better shielded, twisted-pair Ethernet cable.
Caution To prevent data loss and to maintain the integrity of your Ethernet
installation, do not use a cable longer than 100 m.
The first time you power up the device, it attempts to initiate a DHCP network connection. If
the device is unable to initiate a DHCP connection, it connects to the network with a link-local
IP address with the form 169.254.x.x. After the device has powered up, you must install
software on the device and configure the network settings in MAX.
Note Installing software may change the network behavior of the device. For
information about network behavior by installed software version, visit ni.com/info
and enter the code ipconfigcrio.
Troubleshooting
When the sbRIO-9687 is operating, the onboard power LED is ON. If the power LED is OFF,
check if the input power is present and has the correct polarity.
The following figure shows the LEDs on the sbRIO-9687.
