Install the Thermocouple/mV Input Module

The module can be attached to the controller or an adjacent I/O module before or after
mounting. For mounting instructions, see

Mount the Module to a Panel on page 9

, or

Mount

the Module to a DIN Rail on page 10

. To work with a system that is already mounted, see

Replace a Single Module within a System on page 10

.

This procedure explains how to assemble the Compact I/O system.

1. Disconnect power.

2. Check that the bus lever of the module to be installed is in the unlocked (fully right)

position.

3. Use the upper and lower tongue-and-groove slots (1) to secure the modules together

(or to a controller).

4. Move the module back along the tongue-and-groove slots until the bus connectors (2)

line up with each other.

5. Use your fingers or a small screwdriver to push the bus lever back slightly to clear the

positioning tab (3).

IMPORTANT

To reduce the effects of electrical noise, install the 1769-IT6 module at least two slots
away from Compact I/O 120/240V AC power supplies.
