3.7.4 Setting Module Configuration Definitions
„ Configuration Information
This window consists of tab pages used to define the slots of each rack, and the rack settings.
A maximum 4-rack Machine Controller can be set with the CP-717, but the number of racks
is limited to 1 rack for the MP940. Racks 1 to 3 cannot be set.
The maximum number of function Modules (i.e., the number of slots) that can be mounted
to each rack is nine, but the MP940 is an all-in-one type, so its settings are limited to a max-
imum of six slots. The Modules allocated to these slots cannot be changed.
