(2) Precautions for the number of mounted modules
Mount modules within the range of the allowed number of slots.
Even if the total number of slots for a main base unit and extension base units is
greater than the number of available slots (for example, six 12-slot base units are
used), no error will occur as long as modules are mounted in slots whose number is
within a valid range.
An intelligent function module assignment error (error code: 2124, SP.UNIT LAY
ERR.) will occur if any module is mounted in the slot exceeding the number of
available slots.
