1.5.1 Installing the Module in the Chassis
You can install or remove CompactLogix system components while chassis power is applied
and the system is operating. However, please note the following warning.
Warning: When you insert or remove the module while backplane power is on, an electrical arc can cause
personal injury or property damage by sending an erroneous signal to your system's actuators. This can cause
unintended machine motion or loss of process control. Electrical arcs may also cause an explosion they occur in
a hazardous environment. Verify that power is removed, or that the area is non-hazardous 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.
1 Align the module using the upper and lower tongue-and_groove slots with the adjacent
module and slide forward in the direction of the arrow.
