7.2.1 Hot Swapping

7-8

Note: (1) Do not hot swap more than one Module at a time, even if the Modules all sup-

port hot swapping. Hot swapping more than one Module at the same time may
cause the CPU to reset or to stop completely.

(2) When hot swapping on an I/O Module which supply DC power as the I/O power

supply, there is no need to setup safety switches. However, it may cause I/O
signal chatter when inserting or removing a terminal block or a connector to or
from the Module. If this is a problem, then setup a chatter prevention switch for
each Module and be sure to turn this switch OFF to turn OFF the DC power
supply.

(3) When hot swapping, never short-circuit the terminal block or the connectors of

the Module.

(4) Inserting or removing a Module which does not permit hot swapping may cause

the CPU Module to stop.
