You can configure the device to launch an embedded stand-alone
LabVIEW RT application each time it resets. Refer to the Running a
Stand-Alone Real-Time Application (RT Module) topic of the
LabVIEW Help for more information.
Device Reset Options
You can configure the device to launch a LabVIEW FPGA application each
time it is reset. Table 8 lists the reset options available on the NI sbRIO
device. These options determine how the FPGA behaves when the device is
reset in various conditions. Use the RIO Device Setup utility to select reset
options. Access the RIO Device Setup utility by selecting

.
Note If you want a VI to run when loaded to the FPGA, complete the following steps.
1. Right-click the FPGA Target item in the Project Explorer window in LabVIEW.
2. Select Properties.
3. In the General category of the FPGA Target Properties dialog box, place a check in
the Run when loaded to FPGA checkbox.
4. Compile the FPGA VI.
Connecting the NI sbRIO Device to a Network
Connect the device to an Ethernet network using the RJ-45 Ethernet port on
the controller front panel. Use a standard Category 5 (CAT-5) or better
shielded, twisted-pair Ethernet cable to connect the device to an Ethernet
hub, or use an Ethernet crossover cable to connect the device directly to a
computer.
Caution To prevent data loss and to maintain the integrity of your Ethernet installation,
do not use a cable longer than 100 m.

Reset Option Behavior
Do not autoload VI Does not load the FPGA bit stream from flash memory.
Autoload VI on device powerup Loads the FPGA bit stream from flash memory to the FPGA
when the device powers on.
Autoload VI on device reboot Loads the FPGA bit stream from flash memory to the FPGA
when you reboot the device either with or without cycling
power.
