Follow the steps outlined below to open a new service request case (SR) with NI on ni.com using the Service Request Manager (SRM). This process applies to NHR, STS, BTS, and other systems.

Prior to opening a new SR ensure that you:

• Create an NI account
• Login your myNI account on ni.com and make sure your profile information is updated (like email, phone, location, etc.. we will use this information to route your queries and for communication purposes)
• Register your software and hardware serial number by navigating to MyProducts. Note that this process may not be possible for NHR systems, and you may proceed to steps below.

1. Navigate to ni.com/ask ​​​​​and log into your ni account to view the service request manager (SRM). Refer to overview for account creation. You may also access SRM by :

4. Complete the fields shown to provide more information about your request including a descriptive Title, Problem Description (with your exact hardware or software), and Contact Preferences for Request Follow-up.
