Install Your 1734 POINT I/O EtherNet/IP Adapter Chapter 2
Install POINT I/O Modules
The following instructions explain how to install your POINT I/O Modules
onto the DIN rail.
1. Position the mounting base vertically above the DIN rail.
2. Make certain the adapter DIN rail locking screw (orange) is in the
horizontal position.
3. Slide the I/O module mounting base down, allowing the interlocking side
pieces to engage the adjacent mounting base/adapter.
4. Press down firmly to install the I/O module mounting base on the DIN
rail. A locking mechanism locks the mounting base to the DIN rail.
5. Rotate the keyswitch on the I/O module mounting base clockwise until
the appropriate number for the module you are installing (listed on the
module label) aligns with the correct notch in the base.
6. Position the I/O module vertically above its mounting base.
7. Slide the module down until it engages the latching mechanism. You will
hear a clicking sound when the I/O module is properly engaged. The
locking mechanism locks the module to its mounting base.
Remove POINT I/O Modules
To remove a module from its mounting base:
1. Put a flat-blade screwdriver into the slot of the orange latching mechanism
in the mounting base of the I/O module to be removed.
2. Push the screwdriver toward the I/O module to disengage the latch.
The module lifts up off the mounting base.
3. Pull the module off the mounting base.
