ly a suggestion and the customer is free to label the fields in correspondence with his own concept
of the system.
Plug-In Modules
The labelling field for the plug-in modules (MCP, MDA, MAI, MGO and MAO modules) is located
on the front, on the release lever for the module. It is therefore immediately visible as soon as the
front panel of the rack has been swung down. The type of module is printed on the lower half. The
upper half is available for the customer to mark. A possible labelling system is illustrated in the
following.

Slots in the Rack
In the rack, a labelling field is provided in front of the slots. The slot nos. and the types of modules
allowed for each slot are printed on it. In the first rack, the input numbers assigned to the slot are
also printed on this field (in the case that the slot has been filled with an MAI module). In addition,
the customer also has the possibility of marking the type of module actually used in each slot, and,
when MGO or MAO modules are used, of entering the output channel no. corresponding to the
position of the module in the system. When several racks are installed and MAI modules are being
used, it is necessary to enter the input nos., starting with the second rack, corresponding to the
position in the system.
The following rules apply to the numbering of the input and output channels:
MAI Modules/Measurement Sites:
The input nos. are assigned permanently to the slots in the rack; 8 inputs can be connected per
MAI module. For example, if the first MAI module has been plugged into the 7th slot in the first
rack, the first 8 inputs acquire the nos. 9-16.
MGO Modules/Relay Driver Outputs:
The relay driver output nos. are assigned to the MGO module; each MGO module makes 40 relay
driver outputs available. That is, regardless of the slot no. and the rack no., the relay driver outputs
of the first MGO module acquire the nos. 1–40, those of the second MGO module, the numbers
41–80, etc.
MAO Modules/Analog Outputs:
The analog output numbers are permanently assigned; 8 analog outputs are available per MAO
module. The assignement between the analog output numbers and the input numbers can be pa-
rameterized.
Rack: No of the rack the module belongs to
Slot: No of the slot the module plugged in
Module type: MAI, MGO, MCP or MDA
