Issue Details

I want to reset my FPGA. Sometimes, I encounter issues when initiating the FPGA session, and being able to reset the FPGA would be useful.

I found information about a method to reset the FPGA once we begin a session (please see Related Links section)

But I am interested in finding out if there is a way to restart the FPGA using commands or NI MAX before beginning the FPGA session.

Solution

Unfortunately, it is not supported to reset the FPGA without first opening a session.
