Position keying bands in the backplane connectors to
correspond to the key slots on the module.
Place the keying bands:
- between 2 and 4
- between 32 and 34
You can change the position of these bands if subsequent system
design and rewiring makes insertion of a different type of module
necessary.

your fingers
• make sure that key placement
is correct
Incorrect keying or the use of a tool
can result in damage to the backplane
connector and possible system faults.

If you connect or disconnect wiring while field-side power
is on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an
explosion in hazardous locations. Be sure that power is
removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
