1.4 Install the Module in the Rack
If you have not already installed and configured your PLC processor and power
supply, please do so before installing the MVI71-MCM module. Refer to your
Rockwell Automation product documentation for installation instructions.
Warning: You must follow all safety instructions when installing this or any other
electronic devices. Failure to follow safety procedures could result in damage to
hardware or data, or even serious injury or death to personnel. Refer to the
documentation for each device you plan to connect to verify that suitable safety
procedures are in place before installing or servicing the device.
After you have checked the placement of the jumpers, insert MVI71-MCM into
the PLC™ chassis. Use the same technique recommended by Rockwell
Automation to remove and install PLC modules.
Warning: This module is not hot-swappable! Always remove power from the rack
before inserting or removing this module, or damage may result to the module, the
processor, or other connected devices.
