Hello everyone,
I'm working with a cRIO 9073 and unfortunately during the updating of its internal software, the cRIO just shutdown by itself...
Now, I can't access anymore the cRIO by ethernet (the green led is off).
I imagine the cRIO is corrupted. Could you explain me how to reset the device without ethernet ?
I precise that I have already tried the Safe Mode, nothing work...
Thank you in advance,
F.T

Before imaging your cRIO, you must have completed installation of the the development environment and language updates for the appropriate programming language (C++, Java, LabVIEW).You must also complete the NI FRC Update installation. You also must have the cRIO power properly wired to the Power Distribution board (see this document for instructions)
To image the cRIO, the IP address of your computer should be set to 10.xx.yy.5 where XXYY is your 4 digit team number (see chart for examples). The instructions below detail how to set this on Windows 7, there may be slight differences on Vista or XP. Note: If you are planning on running the Driver Station software on a separate PC, you should use an address ending in .6 instead of .5 as the Driver Station uses .5
On the TCP/IP properties page:
Note: For proper operation on the playing field at competition the subnet mask should be set back to 255.0.0.0 after imaging is complete if this PC will be used as a Driver Station.

Connect the ethernet cord from the cRIO to the PC. It is sometimes helpful to use a network switch between the cRIO and PC to prevent the PC from disabling the ethernet port when the cRIO reboots. It is NOT recommended to try re-imaging over WiFi. The imaging tool will begin searching for your cRIO automatically.
Once your cRIO is detected, it should be displayed in the box near the top of the Imaging Tool. Select the options you wish to use, then image the cRIO:
Note: For proper operation on the playing field at competition the subnet mask should be set back to 255.0.0.0 after imaging is complete if this PC will be used as a Driver Station.
For instructions on connecting the Driver Station to the cRIO for the first time and verifying connectivity see Using the Classmate with your cRIO.
For instructions on writing and loading your first program see one of these documents or manuals: C++, Java, LabVIEW.
The cRIO Imaging Tool contains two other features you may find useful:
If the cRIO Imaging Tool is unable to locate the cRIO, or a Timout error message is displayed during cRIO Imaging, the issue is likely with the network configuration. One or more of the following steps may be necessary in order to image your cRIO:
Browse to Start > Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Firewall > Turn Windows Firewall on or off. Make sure to turn the firewall off for all locations listed, then click OK.
If the Firewall cannot be disabled, make sure that the FRC cRIO Imaging Tool is allowed through by selecting Allow a program or feature through Windows Firewall from the Windows Firewall screen, then click Change Settings and make sure that FRC CRIO Imaging Tool is listed and has a checkmark for all three network locations. If it is not listed you will have to add it using the Allow another program... button and browsing to the imaging tool location C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2013\project\CRIO Tool
Hope your problem is solved. Kudos are welcome
