Use the switch on the rear panel of the CPU to set the rack number. The switch has two 
positions: 1 (up) and 0 (down). One CPU is allocated rack number 0, and the partner CPU is 
assigned rack number 1. The default setting of all CPUs is rack number 0. 
Slot for system expansion card  
The back of the CPU has a slot in which you insert the system expansion card (SEC) before 
commissioning the CPU. The SEC contains information that specifies the performance class 
of the CPU in terms of the amount of POs it supports. The SEC is an essential part of the 
CPU hardware. The CPU cannot be operated without an SEC. If an SEC is not detected, the 
corresponding CPU goes to STOP and requests a memory reset. "STOP by CPU memory 
management" is also entered in the diagnostics buffer.  
You need a small screwdriver to remove the SEC. Place the screwdriver at the top of the 
SEC slot and lift out the SEC with the screwdriver.
