Troubleshooting Network Communication
If the NI 9148 cannot communicate with the network, you can perform the
following troubleshooting steps.
1.
Move the IP RESET switch to the ON position.
2.
Disconnect and reconnect chassis power.
3.
Move the IP RESET switch to the OFF position.
4.
Configure the IP and other network settings in MAX.
If you are unable to fix network communication with the network settings
restored, you can restore the BIOS network settings of the chassis. Refer to
the
Configuring IP Settings
section of this document for information about
the BIOS network settings for different chassis revisions. Complete the
following steps to restore the BIOS network settings of the chassis.
1.
Move the IP RESET and SAFE MODE switches to the ON position.
2.
Disconnect and reconnect chassis power.
3.
Move the IP RESET and SAFE MODE switches to the OFF position.
4.
Configure the IP and other network settings in MAX.
Note
If the chassis is restored to the BIOS network settings, the LabVIEW run-time
engine does not load. You must reconfigure the network settings and restart the chassis for
the LabVIEW run-time engine to load.
