or if the product is used in residential or commercial areas. To minimize interference with
radio and television reception and prevent unacceptable performance degradation, install and
use this product in strict accordance with the instructions in the product documentation.
Furthermore, any changes or modifications to the product not expressly approved by National
Instruments could void your authority to operate it under your local regulatory rules.
Caution To ensure the specified EMC performance, operate this product only with

Caution To ensure the specified EMC performance, you must use an isolated cable
with the RS-485 serial port, such as NI part number 184428-01.
Caution To ensure the specified EMC performance, the length of any cable
connected to the video and V2 ports must be no longer than 3 m (10 ft). The length
of any cable connected to the RS-232 and RS-485 ports must be no longer than
NI cRIO-9037 Getting Started Guide | © National Instruments | 3
30 m (100 ft). The length of any cable connected to the USB host ports must be no
longer than 5 m (16 ft).
Caution The USB device port is intended only for use in device configuration,
application deployment, debug, and maintenance.
Caution To ensure the specified EMC performance, product installation requires
either special considerations or user-installed, add-on devices. Refer to the following

You must connect the cRIO-9037 grounding terminal to the grounding electrode system of the
facility.
What to Use
• Ring lug
• Wire, 1.3 mm2 (16 AWG) or larger
• Screwdriver, Phillips #2
What to Do
Complete the following steps to ground the cRIO-9037.
1. Attach the ring lug to the wire.
2. Remove the grounding screw from the grounding terminal on the cRIO-9037.
3. Attach the ring lug to the grounding terminal.
8| ni.com | NI cRIO-9037 Getting Started Guide
4. Tighten the grounding screw to 0.5 N · m (4.4 lb · in.) of torque.
5. Attach the other end of the wire to the grounding electrode system of your facility using a
method that is appropriate for your application.
Caution If you use shielded cabling to connect to a C Series module with a plastic
connector, you must attach the cable shield to the chassis grounding terminal using
1.3 mm2 (16 AWG) or larger wire. Attach a ring lug to the wire and attach the wire
to the chassis grounding terminal. Solder the other end of the wire to the cable
shield. Use shorter wire for better EMC performance.

Connecting the cRIO-9037 to Power
The cRIO-9037 requires a 9 V to 30 V external power supply. The cRIO-9037 filters and
regulates the supplied power and provides power for the C Series modules. The cRIO-9037
has a primary power input, V1, and a secondary power input, V2.
The POWER LED on the cRIO-9037 indicates which power input is in use, as shown in the
following table.
Table 2. POWER LED Indicators
LED Color LED Pattern Indication
Green Solid The cRIO-9037 is powered from the V1 input.
Yellow Solid The cRIO-9037 is powered from the V2 input.
— Off The cRIO-9037 is powered off.
Caution Do not connect V2 to a DC mains supply or to any supply that requires a
connecting cable longer than 3 m (10 ft). A DC mains supply is a local DC
electricity supply network in the infrastructure of a site or building.
What to Use
• Ferrite
• Screwdriver, 2.54 mm (0.10 in.) flathead
• Primary power supply, 9 V to 30 V, 46 W minimum
