We called NI and they said that they shipped a new C-Rio and will get here by Monday. But that is simply too long away. Till monday if any teams nearby has a spare C-Rio just for a few days we can get some testing going it would be great

I have to extend a big THANK YOU to Team188.

They are loaning us a cRIO and even bringing it to us today.

THANK you Team 188

BTW, our fuse was blown last year too. What we did was soldering a temporary external 2A fuse in parallel to the blown fuse while waiting for NI to ship us a replacement. In fact, in anticipating this might happen again, I bought a resettable 2A external fuse and threw that into my tool box. If we ever need it, it's there.
