NI-RIO Error -63040 when using Open FPGA VI Reference from Host PC Primary Software: Driver Software>>NI-RIOPrimary Software Version: 2.3 Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A Secondary Software: N/A
Problem: When attempting to Open an FPGA VI Reference from a host PC to an FPGA on a remote target I will often see the application error out because of an NI RIO communication Error -63040. The error message indicates that the device may not be accessible over the network, or that the NI RIO server may not be running or properly configured. However, I am still able to perform a ping to the controller indicating it is accessible over the network. Why do I receive this error even when the device is accessible over the network and is there a way to determine if the NI RIO server is active and running? Solution: NI RIO Error -63040 is a general communications error that states a connection could not be established to the specified remote device. It is possible that a Real-Time controller will obtain an IP Address and respond to network communication before LabVIEW Real-Time and additional drivers like NI RIO are loaded. However, it is possible to determine if the NI RIO server is running and properly configured by checking for Error -63040 after executing an Open FPGA VI Reference node. The image below indicates one way to determine when the RIO Server is actively running. Related Links: Attachments:
