Re: cRIO Visibility

For your own sake, you really should make sure that all of the cRIO's LEDs are visible (the LEDs near the power and Ethernet connectors, the LEDs on the 9472 output module and the power supply LEDs on the breakouts).

LEDs aren't very useful if you can't see them...

Besides visibility, if you can't see the LEDs then you probably can't easily service the cRIO, modules and breakouts. I'd be VERY surprised if you never needed to get back into the robot for debugging of wiring or adding new devices.
