Boot Time for LV RT on cRIO

Recommended Posts

Any ideas on how to estimate boot up times on a cRIO controller?

My current solution is as follows

I am currently deploying an executable to the controller with some tcp code to connect to a windows machine. I then monitor the time it takes for the tcp connection to get established after switching on the controller. But I am getting varying results every time I run the test. Also I have noticed that this time is dependent on the following

1. NI software loaded on the controller

2. Model of the controller

3. Size of my executable.

I am looking for any suggestions to accurately measure this boot time. Also it would help if I can get any suggestions to minimize the boot time.

Regards,

Justin Thomas

Keep pinging it from the Windows machine for 2 minutes. When it responds, its booted up. If it doesn't its either crashed or not switched on.

The boot up time does vary with all the variables you have mentioned.
