Coding

Caution!
Property damage from wrong coding
If the coding is not unique, plug-in modules can be accidentally swapped.
Coding the plugin modules uniquely so that every plug-in module fits exactly one base module.
Use the coding strip in the base module and corresponding coding pins in the plug-in module
to enable unique assignment of plug-in modules to base modules.
Coding Multifunction Terminals
1.
Shorten the coding strip of the base module to create one or more openings for coding pins.
2.
For each opening in the base module, insert a coding pin in the opposite side of the respective
plug-in module.
Note that the coding in example 1 and example 2 is not unique. The plug-in module from
example 1 could be accidentally connected to the base module from example 2. In contrast,
the coding in example 1 and example 3 is unique.
