Runaway Start-Up Application
If a runaway startup application causes the FP-20xx to become
unresponsive, you must power down the FP-20xx, then reboot it with either
the DISABLE VI switch or SAFE MODE switch in the ON position.
Restarting the module with the DISABLE VI switch ON prevents any VIs
from running at startup. Restarting it with the SAFE MODE switch ON
starts the FP-20xx in safe mode, and the embedded LabVIEW RT engine is
not launched. Refer to the DIP Switches section of Chapter 4, Feature Set
Description, for more information about these DIP switches.
STATUS LED Error Indications
The FP-20xx indicates specific error conditions by flashing the red
STATUS LED a specific number of times. The following table describes
