Memory Module Installation
Always turn off power to the controller before removing the processor and
inserting the memory module. This guards against possible damage to the
module and undesired processor faults. Memory modules have connectors
that are “keyed” to guard against improper installation.
When product or packaging is marked, the product is CE compliant for all
applicable directives.
ATTENTION
!
To avoid potential damage to the memory modules,
handle them by the ends of the carrier or edges of the
plastic housing. Skin oil and dirt can corrode metallic
surfaces, inhibiting electrical contact. Also, do not expose
memory modules to surfaces or areas that may typically
hold an electrostatic charge. Electrostatic charges can alter
or destroy memory.

1. If the processor module is installed in the
chassis, turn off power to the controller.
2. Remove the module by pressing the retainer clips
at both the top and bottom of the module and
sliding it out.
3. Locate the socket on the 1747-L511, -L514, and
-L524 processor boards or the connector on the
1747-L531, -L532, -L541, -L542, -L542P, -L543,
-L543P, -L551, -L552, -L553, and -L553P
processor boards. Place the memory module onto
the socket or connector and press firmly in place.
4. Place jumper J1 as shown above on the -L514
and -L524 processors.
5. Install the processor module into the chassis.
6. Restore power to the controller.

1. Turn off power to the
controller.
2. Remove the processor
compartment cover.
3. Locate the socket on the PC
board.
4. Position the module
correctly over the socket and
press the module firmly into
place. (The memory module
is keyed for proper
installation.)
5. Replace the processor
compartment cover.
6. Restore power to the
controller.
