Mounting the Analog Modules on the Terminal Base Unit
The analog input and output modules mount on a 1797-TB3 or TB3S
intrinsically safe terminal base unit.
1. Rotate keyswitch (1) on terminal base unit (2) clockwise to position 3 for
the 1797-IE8 or -IE8NF or position 4 for the 1797-OE8 as required for
each type of module. Do not change the position of the keyswitch
after wiring the terminal base unit.
2. Make certain the flexbus connector (3) is pushed all the way to the left
to connect with the neighboring terminal base/adapter. You cannot
install the module unless the connector is fully extended.
