All of the DIP switches are in the OFF position when the chassis is shipped from National

Instruments.

NI cRIO-9081 User Manual | © National Instruments | 3

DISABLE RT Switch

The position of the DISABLE_RT determines the operating system the controller boots into. If

the switch is in the OFF position, the system boots into LabVIEW RT. If the switch is the ON

position, the system boots into the non-RT OS installed on the system, such as Windows.

SAFE MODE Switch (RT Only)

The position of the SAFE MODE switch determines whether the embedded LabVIEW Real-

Time engine launches at startup. If the switch is in the OFF position, the LabVIEW Real-Time

engine launches. Keep this switch in the OFF position during normal operation. If the switch is

in the ON position at startup, the cRIO-9081 launches only the essential services required for

updating its configuration and installing software. The LabVIEW Real-Time engine does not

launch.

CONSOLE OUT Switch (RT Only)

The position of the CONSOLE OUT switch determines whether console input and output are

redirected to the RS-232 serial port. If the switch is in the ON position, console input and

output are redirected to the RS-232 serial port. If the switch is in the OFF position, the RS-232

serial port functions normally.

With a serial-port terminal program, you can use console output to read the POST results,

BIOS revision, IP addresses, and software installed on the cRIO-908x. You can also enter the

BIOS setup menu and modify BIOS settings. Use a null-modem cable to connect the RS-232

serial port on the chassis to a computer. Push the CONSOLE OUT switch to the ON position.

Make sure that the serial-port terminal program is configured with the same settings as the

RS-232 serial port. The default configuration settings for the RS-232 serial port in CONSOLE

OUT mode are the following:

• 9,600 bits per second

• Eight data bits

• No parity

• One stop bit

• No flow control

You can use the BIOS setup menu to modify the CONSOLE OUT configuration settings for

the RS-232 serial port.

Keep the CONSOLE OUT switch in the OFF position during normal operation.

IP RESET Switch (RT Only)

Push the IP RESET switch to the ON position and reboot the controller to reset the IP address

and other TCP/IP settings of the controller to the factory defaults. You can also push this

switch to the ON position to unlock a controller that was previously locked in MAX.

NO APP Switch (RT Only)

Push the NO APP switch to the ON position to prevent a LabVIEW RT startup application

from running at startup. If you want to permanently disable a LabVIEW RT application from

running at startup, you must disable it in LabVIEW. To run an application at startup, push the

NO APP switch to the OFF position, create an application using the LabVIEW Application

4| ni.com | NI cRIO-9081 User Manual

Builder, and configure the application in LabVIEW to launch at startup. If you already have an

application configured to launch at startup and you push the NO APP switch from ON to OFF,

the startup application is automatically enabled. For more information about automatically

launching VIs at startup and disabling VIs from launching at startup, refer to the Running a

Stand-Alone Real-Time Application (RT Module) topic of the LabVIEW Help.

USER1 Switch (RT Only)

You can define the USER1 switch for your application. To define the purpose of this switch in

your embedded application, use the RT Read Switch VI in your LabVIEW RT embedded VI.

For more information about the RT Read Switch VI, refer to the LabVIEW Help.

NO FPGA Switch

Push the NO FPGA switch to the ON position to prevent a LabVIEW FPGA application from

loading at startup. The NO FPGA switch overrides the reset options described in the System

Reset Options section. After startup you can download to the FPGA from software regardless

of switch position.

Restoring the Hard Drive to Factory Default Condition

(Windows Only)

You can restore the hard drive of the cRIO-9081 to factory default condition either from a

recovery partition on the hard drive or from the NI Embedded Controller OEM Re-Installation

DVD shipped with thecRIO-9081.

In order to use the hard-drive recovery partition, you must press and hold <F4> during the

POST to launch the recovery utility. In order to use the recovery DVD, you must connect an

external DVD-ROM drive to one of the USB ports of the cRIO-9081. For more information

about restoring the hard drive to factory default condition, go to ni.com/info and enter the Info

Code hdrecovery908x.

Note Restoring the hard drive to factory default condition erases the contents of

the hard drive. Back up any files you want to keep before restoring the hard drive.
