Receiving Error BFF63101 When Deploying XNET Database

Updated Mar 16, 2026

Reported In

Driver

  • NI-XNET

Operating System

  • LabVIEW Real-Time (NI Linux Real-Time)

Issue Details

When I try to deploy an XNET Database to my real-time target, by using the XNET Database Editor, I get error NI-XNET: (0xBFF63101) File transfer communication with the LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) target failed


How can I fix this error?

Solution


This error may occur when there is a password set on a Linux RT target. This is a known issue and documented in corrective action request (CAR) 576222. 

If having a password on your RT target is required, you can deploy the XNET database programmatically to the RT target instead of using the XNET Database Utility. 

For more information on how to do deploy databases programmatically, please reference Managing RT Databases.vi in NI Example Finder. To find it, navigate to the Help tab in LabVIEW and select Find Examples >> Hardware Input and Output >> CAN >> NI-XNET >> Databases (Editing and Managing) >> Managing RT Databases.vi.
