Installation Instructions
(Cat. No. 1794-OB8EP)
This module mounts on a 1794 terminal base unit.
1. Rotate keyswitch (1) on terminal base unit (2) clockwise to position 2
as required for this type of module.
2. Make certain the flexbus connector (3) is pushed all the way to the left
to connect with the neighboring terminal base/adapter. You cannot
install the module unless the connector is fully extended.
3. Make sure that the pins on the bottom of the module are straight so
they will align properly with the connector in the terminal base unit.
If you remove or insert the module while the
