POINT I/O Source Input Modules
Install the Module
The module can be installed before or after base installation. Make sure that the
mounting base is correctly keyed before installing the module into the mounting
base. In addition, make sure that the mounting base locking screw is positioned
horizontal referenced to the base.
ATTENTION: When you insert or remove the module while backplane power is
on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous
location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is non-hazardous before proceeding.
Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the module
and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical resistance that can
affect module operation.
1. Using a bladed screwdriver, rotate the keyswitch on the mounting base
clockwise until the number required for the type of module being
installed aligns with the notch in the base.
2. Verify that the DIN rail locking screw is in the horizontal position. You
cannot insert the module if the locking mechanism is unlocked.
3. Insert the module straight down into the mounting base.
4. Press to secure. The module locks into place.
ATTENTION: Do not discard the end cap. Use this end cap to cover the exposed
interconnections on the last mounting base on the DIN rail. Failure to do so could
result in equipment damage or injury from electric shock.
