The NI 9149 cRIO expansion chassis advertises that there are 512MB of available nonvolatile memory in the specification. I would like to understand how this nonvolatile memory may be acessed. Can anybody help? Is this memory available in some way to code running on the FPGA?
Thanks!

Thanyou for the link; however, it is still not clear to me if it is possible for the FPGA code to access data (perhaps calibration/scaling coefficients) stored in the flash. The 9149 has no host controller (although it appears to run Linux according to MAX) and so there is no way for me to use the host to access files.

Jordani,
You will not be able to write to memory from FPGA. Writing to memory is simply not available on the expansion chassis. If you are looking for local storage you will have to obtain cRIO.

Thank you for this information.
I'm left with three questions:
