Troubleshooting Chassis Connectivity
If your cDAQ chassis becomes disconnected from the network, try the following:
• After moving the chassis to a new network, NI-DAQmx may lose connection to the chassis.
In this case, click Reconnect to provide NI-DAQmx with the new hostname or IP address.
• The cDAQ chassis icon indicates whether it is recognized and present on the network. If a
connected chassis appears as disconnected in the configuration tree in MAX, select
Self-Test or Reset Chassis. If successful, the chassis icon changes to blue.
