At the time of installation, rotate the keys on the module
and the connector so that they can be connected together
securely. It is recommended that, for modules so
equipped, the keys on each successive module in the
rack be rotated one position to the right of the keys on the
preceding module.
If you use this method, the keys on each connector will be
positioned in such a way as to fit together only with a
specific module, and there will be little chance of the
wrong connector being attached to a module.
Step 7.
Turn on power to the system.
Step 8.
Verify the installation by connecting the programming
terminal to the system and running the ReSource
Software.
Stop all programs that may be running.
Use the MONITOR I/O function in DCS 5000/AutoMax
systems or POINT MONITOR function in AutoMate
systems.
Toggle each of the input devices connected to the input
module one at a time to verify that the installation has
been completed correctly.
