Solution
Some of the sensor VIs in the Device I/O palette are built on DAQmx, which is not supported on the sbRIO and most of the cRIO* platforms due to the onboard FPGA and RT processor. The FPGA and RT processor have direct interaction with the I/O, allowing for deterministic processing and decision making. DAQmx is currently not supported on FPGA; the RIO Platform requires you to use NI Scan Mode or FPGA Interface.

Note: NI-DAQmx is compatible with the cRIO-904x and cRIO-905x series.
Many of the sensors developed from DAQmx have FPGA and RT examples, navigate to
LabVIEW\Examples\Robotics\Sensor Drivers. Please use these examples instead of DAQmx to implement sensor communication on the RIO Platform.
