1slot 8point, 16point
1/2slot 8point, 16point, 32point
➀ If an input module resides in either slot, associated with a logical group, of the primary chassis, an
input module cannot reside in that logical group'
s complementary chassis.
Block Transfer Modules
Addressing Method Placement
2slot
The right slot of the primary I/O group can be another block
transfer module, or an 8point input or output module.
The left slot of the complementary I/O group must be
empty.
In the right slot of the complementary I/O group, you can
place an 8point output module; this slot must be empty if
the corresponding slot in the primary I/O group is a block
transfer module.
1slot
Leave the corresponding I/O group in the complementary
chassis empty.
1/2slot
Leave the corresponding I/O group in the complementary
chassis empty.
The following example illustrates how I/O modules requiring two
words of the input or output image can leave unused image space.
