Can anyone tell me how to check the status on RIO racks for power failure. I need to setup a check on 2 remote racks for power failure. I the remote racks go down I need to set the processes to stop.

THANKS!

Look into the processor status "rack" tab.
There are several status bits for each rack, one of them (fault) is communication status. I assume a bad power supply would lead to lack of communication, and then stop your process based on that.
