9.3 The 460 Analog Input Module
9.3.1 Design
The modules are designed as plug-in PCBs for central controllers and
expansion units with a backplane connector and with a blade connector to
accept a plug-in front connector. You can directly connect the process signal
lines to the front connector, which is available separately, with screw or
crimp terminals.
Situated on each module is an addressing switch with six rockers to set the
module address. Analog input modules also have two switches on the side
with eight rockers for setting the mode, and receptacles for range cards.
The modules are protected by covers on both sides.

The module can no longer be addressed by the user program.
Modules which are switched off can be removed or inserted during operation.
If this is not necessary, operate the module with the enable input switched
off.
