Uninstall an Energy Storage
Module (ESM)
The controllers ship with an ESM installed.
Consider these points before removing the ESM:
• After the controller loses power, either because the chassis power is
turned off or the controller has been removed from a powered chassis,
do not remove the ESM immediately.
Wait until the controller’s OK status indicator transitions from Green to
Solid Red to OFF before you remove the ESM.
• Use the 1756-ESMNSE module if your application requires that the
installed ESM deplete its residual stored energy to 40 μJ or less before
transporting it into or out of your application.
• Once it is installed, you cannot remove the 1756-ESMNRM module
from the controller.
• The Armor™ controller energy storage modules (ESM) cannot be
removed or replaced.
TIP For this example, the controller key switch is set to Remote Mode. If your
controller key switch is set to Run Mode or Program Mode, the menu options
change.
