Caution   Because the NI-SWITCH SFP disables relay count synchronization during the relay count reset process, counts may be lost for any relay operation performed up to ten minutes prior to resetting a relay count.

Complete the following steps to reset a relay count.

  1. Select File»Relay Maintenance. The Relay Maintenance dialog box appears.
  2. Select the relay to reset from the Relay Name drop-down list.
  3. (Optional) Record the Existing Relay Count for your records.
  4. Verify the relay you selected for reset, and click OK to reset the relay count to zero. The NI-SWITCH SFP saves the new relay count to the hardware and resets the active device.

Restoring a Relay Count

In case of unintentional relay reset, complete the following steps to restore a previous relay count.

  1. Repeat steps 1 and 2 above for resetting a relay count.
  2. Verify the relay you selected for reset, and enable Edit Count.
  3. Type the previous count in New Relay Count and click OK. The NI-SWITCH SFP saves the relay count to the hardware and resets the active device.
