sbRIO-9860

Non-Enclosed, 2-Port, C Series Vehicle
Multiprotocol Interface Module

This document describes how to connect to the sbRIO-9860.

Note Before you begin, complete the software and

hardware installation procedures in your chassis
documentation.

Note The guidelines in this document are specific to

the sbRIO-9860. The other components in the system
might not meet the same safety ratings. Refer to the
documentation for each component in the system to
determine the safety and EMC ratings for the entire
system. Refer to the sbRIO-9860 Safety,
Environmental, and Regulatory Information for safety
and EMC information specific to the sbRIO-9860
module.

Note The sbRIO-9860 must be installed inside a

suitable shielded enclosure prior to use.

Connecting the sbRIO-9860

The sbRIO-9860 has two ports for connecting to transceiver
cables (required to connect to the CAN/LIN bus) and a two­position connector for use with an external power supply.

For more information about transceiver cables, refer to the

Transceiver Cable page on ni.com.

The sbRIO-9860 requires an external power supply of +9 V to
+30 V to power the transceiver cables. Supply power to the
sbRIO-9860 V

connector on the module front panel using the

SUP

supplied power cable. The exposed lead wires at the end of the
power cable are routed as follows: black wire—COM, red wire—
V

. The power cable lead wires may be daisy-chained to the

SUP

controller power port when the controller supply voltage is in the
appropriate range.

Note Power on V

is required for transceiver cable

SUP

operation.

Note When using more than four transceiver cables

with your CompactRIO chassis, refer to the Transceiver

Cable page on ni.com for mounting guidelines to limit

the thermal impact to your CompactRIO system.
