I agree with Alan. If the DSC is getting power but the RSL isn't doing _anything_, you probably don't have the cable to the cRIO working as intended.

Double check that it is in there nicely, and if that doesn't help beep it out with a multimeter (or use a known good cable).

There is a safety "enable/disable" line on the cable that will shut down the entire DSC if it is not connected which would result in similar symptoms.
