Reset cRIO

[Shravan Raghu]

Hello

i am using cRIO-9066 to produce few analog voltages. I am running crio in scan mode and after i stop running the program, the analog output is still present at the pin. Does anyone know how I could reset the cRIO? Thank you

Regards

Hi,

You need to do two things:

1. Make sure you shut down your program properly... not using the Abort Execution button.
   • See http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361M-01/glang/labview_toolbar/ for a description of the Abort Execution button
      
2. When your program is shutting down, make it output 0 V.

Hello

ok. I had this idea but i thought there might be a vi for that. Thanks anyways.

You could also write and run a VI that outputs 0 V

Alternatively, switch off the cRIO and turn it on again.

There sort if is. Generally you would set up a watchdog so that if your software hangs or crashes, things get reset back to a known state.
