You do have to use a crossover cable. Neither the cRIO nor the Axis camera is capable of "switching sides" to let you use a standard patch cable.

Do you have the camera connected to power? If so, what color is the ring around its lens showing?

If you're talking about the green connection/activity LED next to the Ethernet jack, is it not lighting up at all, or is it just coming on steady and not blinking?

Do you have software loaded into the cRIO?
