Boot Options
Table 2 lists the reset options available on NI sbRIO devices. 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 Start»All Programs»National
Instruments»NI-RIO»RIO Device Setup.
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 Serial Devices to the NI sbRIO Device
The NI sbRIO device has an RS-232 serial port to which you can connect
devices such as displays or input devices. Use the Serial VIs to read from
and write to the serial port from a LabVIEW RT application. For more
information about using the Serial VIs, refer to the Serial VIs and
Functions topic of the LabVIEW Help.
Using the Internal Real-Time Clock
The system clock of the NI sbRIO device gets the date and time from the
internal real-time clock at startup. This synchronization provides
timestamp data to the device.

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 to the FPGA when you
reboot the device either with or without cycling power.
