NO APP Switch

Push the NO APP switch to the ON position to prevent a LabVIEW RT
startup application from running at startup. If you want to permanently
disable a LabVIEW RT application from running at startup, you must
disable it in LabVIEW. To run an application at startup, push the NO APP
switch to the OFF position, create an application using the LabVIEW
Application Builder, and configure the application in LabVIEW to launch
at startup. If you already have an application configured to launch at startup
and you push the NO APP switch from ON to OFF, the startup application
is automatically enabled. For more information about automatically
launching VIs at startup and disabling VIs from launching at startup, refer
to the Running a Stand-Alone Real-Time Application (RT Module) topic of
the LabVIEW Help.

CONS OUT Switch

With a serial-port terminal program, you can use the CONS OUT switch
to read the IP address and firmware version of the controller. Use a
null-modem cable to connect the serial port to a computer. Push the switch
to the ON position. Make sure that the serial-port terminal program is
configured to the following settings:

9,600 bits per second

Eight data bits

No parity

One stop bit

No flow control

The serial-port terminal program displays the IP address and firmware
version of the controller, and alerts you when you connect an unsupported
USB device to the cFP-2220. Keep this switch in the OFF position during
normal operation.

USER2 and USER1 Switches

You can define the USER2 and USER1 switches for your application.
To define the switches in an embedded application, use the RT Read
Switch VI in a LabVIEW RT embedded VI. You can use the FieldPoint
ReadVI to read defined switches in embedded or unembedded applications.
For more information about the RT Read Switch VI and the FieldPoint
Read VI, refer to the LabVIEW Help.
