My FPGA project doesn't want to recognize te module NI 9870. Why?

Everything is in the title! Anyway, FPGA recognizes the other modules (3 NI9211 and 2 NI9215).

Thanks if you can help!

Julie, I have not used this module, but do you have NI serial installed on your controller?

How do I know if it's installed? Normally, I installed all the softwareon the controller (LabVIEW RT, FPGA, etc.). I forgot to precise that I use a compactRIO.

Ok, I found the file NI Serial, so I guess it's installed.

I reinstalled the stuff on the controller, included the NI Serial 3.3. It still doesn't work. Do you think that it can come from the fact that nothing is connected yet to the module?

What message do you get when you try to discover your modules? The module is just not found or do you get an error?

 

In any case, do you have the right version of LabVIEW and NI-RIO? You can find that information here:

 

ftp://ftp.ni.com/pub/devzone/tut/crio_software_versions.htm

 

According to it, you need LV 8.5 and NI-RIO 3.0 to be able to use the module.

Unfortunately, I already check this link. I don't get an error, and when I launch the Troubleshouting wizard, it tells me to launch the "add new hardware wizard" etc. It is in the discovery status that I see the problem, when I try to do a new FPGA. It replies me that there is a problem of version, but I have the good ones! Do you think I could have had a problem during the installation?

Hi Julie,

 

What version of software do you have installed in your system? I am more interested in the versions of LabVIEW, NI-RIO, NI-Serial. Have a look at the following knowledge base article:

Julie, were you able to get it working?   Was it a software version problem?
