1 Installation of the Module
The cRIO PB module is a PROFIBUS DP Master/Slave module for National Instruments
CompactRIO, Single-Board RIO systems. The configuration entirely takes place by means of
the delivered software. Thus, no jumpers or DIP-switch adjustments are necessary.
To mount the module in the CompactRIO or Single-Board RIO proceed as follows:
Switch off the CompactRIO or Single-Board RIO
Plug the cRIO PB module into slot 1 until it snaps in.
Pay attention to a proper adjustment of the board in the guidance (avoid canting !).
Important note: The CompactRIO PROFIBUS DP modules require 2.5 W of power, so you
must use it in Slot 1 while leaving Slot 2 empty.
Important note: The CompactRIO PROFIBUS DP modules is supported only in
CompactRIO reconfigurable chassis, such as an NI cRIO-911x, and NI Single-Board RIO
devices.
