Installing the CPU
The CPU must be installed in the first slot in the base (closest to the power supply). You
cannot install the CPU in any other slot. When inserting the CPU into the base, align the
PC board with the grooves on the top and bottom of the base. Push the CPU straight into
the base until it is firmly seated in the backplane connector. Use the retaining clips to secure
the CPU to the base.
WARNING: To minimize the risk of electrical shock, personal injury, or equipment damage, always
disconnect the system power before installing or removing any system component.
Connecting the Programming Devices
The handheld programmer is connected to the CPU with a Handheld Programmer cable.
You can connect the Handheld Programmer to either port on a DL240 CPU. The Handheld
Programmer is shipped with a cable. The cable is approximately 6.5 ft (200cm).
If you are using a Personal Computer with the DirectSOFT programming package, you can
use either the top or bottom port.
CPU must reside in first slot!
