Complete the following steps to configure the cRIO-906x startup options in MAX.
- In MAX, expand your system under Remote Systems.
- Select the Startup Settings tab to configure the startup settings.
cRIO-906x Startup Options
You can configure the following cRIO-906x startup options.
| Startup Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Force Safe Mode | Rebooting the cRIO-906x with this setting on starts the cRIO-906x without launching LabVIEW Real-Time or any startup applications. In safe mode, the cRIO-906x launches only the services necessary for updating configuration and installing software. |
| Enable Console Out | Rebooting the cRIO-906x with this
setting on redirects the console output to the USB 2.0 Type-C Device Port with
Console Out. You can use a serial-port terminal program to read the IP address and
firmware version of the cRIO-906x. Make sure that the
serial-port terminal program is configured to the following settings:
|
| Disable RT Startup App | Rebooting the cRIO-906x with this setting on prevents any LabVIEW startup applications from running. |
| Disable FPGA Startup App | Rebooting the cRIO-906x with this setting on prevents autoloading of any FPGA application. |
| Enable Secure Shell (SSH) Logins | Rebooting the cRIO-906x with this
setting on starts sshd on the cRIO-906x. Starting sshd
enables logins over SSH, an encrypted communication protocol. Note Refer to the Accessing the
Shell on NI Linux Real-Time Devices link under Related
Information below for more information about SSH. |
| LabVIEW Project Access | Rebooting the cRIO-906x with this setting on enables you to add the target to a LabVIEW project. |
