POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT OPERATION
WARNING
Before installing or removing your module, always disconnect power from
the SLC 500 system and from any other source to the module (in other
words, do not "hot swap" your module), and disconnect any devices wired
to the module.
Failure to observe this precaution can cause unintended equipment
operation and damage.
When inserting your module into the rack, you do not need to remove the
supplied 16-position terminal block from the module. If, however, you do
remove the terminal block, apply the supplied write-on label to the terminal
block, and use the write-on label to identify your module's location.
To remove the terminal block, unscrew the two retaining screws at the top and
bottom of the terminal block, and using a screwdriver or needle-nose pliers,
carefully pry the terminal block loose.
To insert your module into the rack, follow these steps:
1. Align the circuit board of your module with the card guides at the top
2. Slide your module into the chassis until both top and bottom retaining
and bottom of the chassis.
clips are secure. Apply firm even pressure on your module to attach it to
