Testing the Installation
Make sure that you have installed and configured the RSLinx software and
an Allen-Bradley PC ControlNet interface. The NI-FBUS Configurator
requires these components to interact with the linking device.
To make sure that your NI-FBUS software is correctly installed and is
working properly, follow these steps:
1. Restart Windows NT.
2. Start the NI-FBUS Communications Manager by selecting the NIFB
icon in the NI-FBUS menu.
On successful startup, NI-FBUS displays a message saying that NIFB
started up successfully, and the title bar of the window changes to NIFB
(running).
