3) why are the safe mode and IP reset switches set on your cRIO?
Thank you for your response.

1) The wiring is only set up like this because the KoP only provided red wires. We are planning on going to Home Depot to buy black wires. Other than that, the wire color shouldn't matter.
2) We actually try with the dongle switch on and still did not work.
3) The safe mode and IP reset switches are set on because when we were reimaging the cRIO, it said to turn the IP reset and safe mode to ON. Can that be the problem?

Edit:
The cRIO, driver station and PC seems to be getting information since we did the Ping test VI.
