The module can be installed before, or after base installation. Make
sure that the mounting base is correctly keyed before installing the
module into the mounting base. In addition, make sure the mounting
base locking screw is positioned horizontal referenced to the base.

mounting base clockwise till the number required for the type of
module being installed aligns with the notch in the base.

secure. The module will lock into
place.
