Wiring Arm
You make connections to your communication links with the 1771-WG
wiring arm, which is shipped with the module.
Your wiring arm attaches to the pivot bar on the bottom of the I/O chassis.
It pivots upward and connects with the module so that you can install or
remove the module without disconnecting the wires.
Communication Links
The 1785-BEM module has ports for two communication links that
connect with remote I/O and Data Highway Plus network (Figure 4.2).
In addition, the module has a relay for customer connection.
