Install an I/O Module
Install the module before or after base installation. Make sure that the mounting 
base is correctly keyed before installing the module into the mounting base. In 
addition, make sure the mounting base locking screw is positioned horizontal 
referenced to the base.
1. Using a bladed screwdriver, rotate the keyswitch on the mounting base 
clockwise until the number required for the type of module aligns with the 
notch in the base. 
WARNING: When you insert or remove the module while 
backplane power is on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause 
an explosion in hazardous location installations. Be sure that power 
is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
