Installing Block I/O
In this chapter you will learn how to mount the block, connect the remote
I/O link, connect the input and output wiring to the block, and terminate
the remote I/O link.
Before installation, you must determine:
the number of blocks desired
the total distance of the installation
transmission rate desired
if external fuses are required
Acceptable combinations are shown in Table 2.A.
