CRIO FRC II Questions

[Colin P]

Yeah, the majority of teams only use 2 or 3 modules, so the 4 slot cRIO is going to be a perfect fit.

The four slot is going to be provided in the KOP, so you won't even need to purchase one.

It will be in the rookie kit.

Are the drawings available yet? Specifically the mounting hole locations and footprint?

Thanks,

As far as I'm aware, this is the only such existing documentation that NI has on their website with regards to the cRIO II.

Mark's white paper notes that the new cRIO is 4.4” shorter in length, same height & width, with the dimensions 7”(l) x 3.5”(w) x 2.5”(h). It also says that the new cRIO will resemble the 9076, but I'm not sure about that and it doesn't list specs regarding screw placement anyways.

I think the 9075/6 should be close enough: http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/375650a.pdf

[Greg McKaskle]

Definitely close enough. Those are the base models that the FRC option is based on.

Does anyone know what the USB port will be used for?

[Mark McLeod]

The cRIO FRC II doesn't have the optional USB port.
