For environments with high shock and vibration, NI recommends mounting the cRIO-906x directly on a flat, rigid surface using the mounting holes in the device.

What to Use

  • cRIO-906x
  • Screwdriver, Phillips #2
  • M4 or number 8 screw (x2), user-provided, longer than 19.00 mm (0.75 in.) to pass all the way through the cRIO-906x
Note The cRIO-9063/64/65 have two mounting screws. The cRIO-9066/67/68 have three mounting screws.

What to Do

Complete the following steps to mount the cRIO-906x directly on a flat surface.

  1. Prepare the surface for mounting the cRIO-906x using the Surface Mounting Dimensions.
  2. Align the cRIO-906x on the surface.
  3. Fasten the cRIO-906x to the surface using the M4 or number 8 screws appropriate for the surface. Tighten the screws to a maximum torque of 1.3 N · m(11.5 lb · in.).
