3.4 Installing the Module
Insert
the module in any slot of a base using a 545 or 555 controller when
the power is off. See Figure 3-6. Power consumption for the purpose of
power budgeting on the base is 7 watts.
To
minimize potential shock, turn off power to the I/O base and to
any modules installed in the base before inserting or removing a
module or installing a terminal block. Failure to do so may result in
potential injury to personnel or damage to equipment.
Make
field connections to the front connector on the module with twisted
shielded pair cable following standard grounding practices for
instrumentation wiring (see Sections 3.5 and 3.6). Keep cable lengths
between input sensors and the T
urboPlastic module to a minimum. It is
recommended that the length does not exceed 35 feet. The connectors accept
wire of size #16 to #24 A
WG.
