Fig. 165: Possible positions for mechanical encoding (1 to 18)
The coding either makes it impossible to insert the module to the wrong place or blocks its
electrical function (outputs are not activated).
The following figures show the possible encodings.

NOTICE!
Terminal units and terminal bases have a mechanical coding which prevents
modules (from) being inserted into the wrong places for cases that might result
in dangerous parasitic voltages or if modules could be destroyed.
