WARNING: When you insert or remove the module while backplane power is
on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous
location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the module
and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical resistance that can
affect module operation.
ATTENTION: Although the module is designed to support RIUP, when you
remove or insert the module with field-side power applied, unintended
machine motion or loss of process control can occur. Exercise extreme caution
when using this feature.
