C. Use a separate power supply for each module that needs external power.
D. Refer to the operating instructions for the power requirements of each I/O module. If a
module requires external power, connect a power supply to the V and C inputs on the
connector block for that module. If you want to power field I/O devices from a connector
block, supply power to the connector block, and then connect the connector block V and C
output terminals to the field device.

Check the DIP switches
on the controller, making
sure that the RESET IP
switch is not enabled.
Plug in each power
supply to the Compact
FieldPoint system. The
cFP-20
xx
runs a power-on
self test (POST) that takes
several seconds. You should see the POWER and STATUS LEDs come on. After about five
seconds, the STATUS LED begins flashing. The cFP-20
xx
is ready to be configured, and you
can install the FieldPoint software.
If you have already assigned an IP address to the cFP-20

xx,

the STATUS LED turns off, and
the A, B, C, and D LEDs come on for about 15 seconds as LabVIEW RT starts up. Once they
turn off, the I/O module READY LEDs come on, and the cFP-20
xx
is ready for use. The total
boot time for a configured system is 30–45 seconds.
If the STATUS LED does not light up as described here, refer to the
