The  I/O Terminal Unit is snapped into the DIN rail in the same way as the Terminal Base. Once secured 
to the DIN rail, slide the I/O unit to the left until it fully locks into place creating a solid mechanical and 
electrical connection. 
Up to 7 I/O Terminal Units could be combined with a CPU Terminal Base. 
 ATTENTION 
When attaching the CPU Terminal Base and I/O modules, make sure the bus 
connectors are securely locked together to ensure proper electrical connection.
