Re: cRIO's Ethernet Port Randomly Disconnecting?

Chris,
If the PD is from 2009, there is a known problem with a surface mount cap too near the edge of the board. If you dropped it, you may have dislodged the cap and it is now shorting something inside the PD. Try taking the cover off and see if something is loose or floating around inside.

I wasn't aware of a problem with the Power Distribution board. There was a problem with the Digital Sidecar, C6. Do you have more information about the PD problem?

Do you know if this problem has been resolved in the 2010 version?

Re: cRIO's Ethernet Port Randomly Disconnecting?

I know that there was some work being done at the end of the season. Erik Van Wyk would be the best to ask.
