(3)Can the problem be that the safe mode and the IP reset pins are set on the cRIO?

(1) No. Thats where you plug in i/o like switches.
(2) Sounds good...
(3) No clue - my team didn't toggle any of those when we set it up.

Are you certain the digital i/o module is in the right slot on the crio? I think the default is slot 4. If not, it looks like it would be 6.

The battery display on the ds is saying no comms because the analog breakout in slot one isn't wired up.


The light on the controller should be solid if its enabled and on autonomous.

Are the two lights next to ethernet port one on the crio blinking rapidly, or are they solid?

btw it might be helpful to see a photo of the top of the crio - what the breakouts look like etc.
