Caution Do not hot-swap USB devices while the cRIO-9082 is in a hazardous location or connected to high voltages. If the cRIO-9082 is not in a hazardous location, you can connect and disconnect USB devices without affecting operation. Video Port (VGA) The cRIO-9082 VGA port outputs graphics using VESA standard VGA analog signaling.
RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet Ports The cRIO-9082 has two tri-speed RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports. By default, both Ethernet ports are enabled and configured to obtain an IP address automatically. The Ethernet ports can be configured in MAX. The following table shows the pinout for the RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports.
If you apply power to both the V1 and V2 inputs, the cRIO-9082 operates from the V1 input. If the input voltage to V1 is insufficient, the cRIO-9082 operates from the V2 input.
The FPGA continues to run unless you select the Autoload on Any Device Reset boot option. CMOS Reset Button The cRIO-9082 has a CMOS reset button that you can use to reset the CMOS and the BIOS. LEDs The cRIO-9082 provides the following LEDs.
The DRIVE LED is lit yellow when an internal drive is being accessed. STATUS LED Indicators The STATUS LED is off during normal operation. The cRIO-9082 indicates specific software error conditions by flashing the STATUS LED yellow a certain number of times every few seconds, as shown in the following table.
Page 16
If the problem persists, contact National Instruments. The cRIO-9082 indicates specific hardware error conditions by flashing the STATUS LED red a certain number of times every few seconds, as shown in the following table. Table 13. STATUS LED Hardware Indicators...
The cRIO-9082 provides a chassis grounding screw. NI cRIO-9081 1. Chassis Grounding Screw For EMC compliance, you must connect the cRIO-9082 to earth ground through the chassis ground screw. Use wire that is 1.31 mm (16 AWG) solid copper wire with a maximum length of 1.5 m (5 ft).
CMOS BATTERY IS DEAD battery is dead. The cRIO-9082 still starts, but the system clock is reset to the date and time of the BIOS release. The battery is not user-replaceable. If you need to replace the CMOS battery, contact NI.

You can also mount the cRIO-9082 in other orientations, on a nonmetallic surface, on a 35-mm DIN rail, on a desktop, or in a rack. Mounting the cRIO-9082 in these or other configurations can reduce the maximum allowable ambient temperature and can affect the typical accuracy of modules in the cRIO-9082.
Mounting Requirements Your installation must meet the following requirements for cooling and cabling clearance. Allow 50.8 mm (2.00 in.) on the top and the bottom of the cRIO-9082 for air circulation, as shown in the following figure. Figure 6. cRIO-9082 Cooling Dimensions...
Ambient Temperature Measure the ambient temperature at each side of the cRIO-9082, 63.5 mm (2.50 in.) from the side and 50.8 mm (2.00 in.) forward from the rear of the cRIO-9082, as shown in the following figure. Figure 8. cRIO-9082 Ambient Temperature Location 50.8 mm...
Fasten the cRIO-9082 to the surface using the M4 screws appropriate for the surface. Screws must not exceed 8 mm of insertion into the cRIO-9082. Tighten the screws to a maximum torque of 1.3 N · m (11.5 lb · in.).
Mounting the Device on a Panel You can use the NI panel mounting kit to mount the cRIO-9082 on a panel. What to Use • cRIO-9082 • Screwdriver, Phillips #2 • NI panel mounting kit, 781919-01 – Panel mounting plate –...
(7.43 in.) (4.29 in.) 58.2 mm (2.29 in.) Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail You can use the NI DIN rail mounting kit to mount the cRIO-9082 on a standard 35-mm DIN rail. What to Use • cRIO-9082 •...
Align the cRIO-9082 and the DIN rail clip. Fasten the DIN rail kit to the cRIO-9082 using the screwdriver and M4x10 screws. NI provides these screws with the DIN rail mounting kit. Tighten the screws to a maximum torque of 1.3 N · m (11.5 lb · in.).
