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-DFNT 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-DFNT 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.

1 Turn power OFF.

2 Align the module with the top and bottom guides, and slide it into the rack

until the module is firmly against the backplane connector.

3 With a firm but steady push, snap the module into place.

4 Check that the holding clips on the top and bottom of the module are securely

in the locking holes of the rack.

5 Make a note of the slot location. You will need to identify the slot in which the

module is installed in order for the sample program to work correctly. Slot

numbers are identified on the green circuit board (backplane) of the PLC

rack.

6 Turn power ON.
Note: If you insert the module improperly, the system may stop working, or may behave

unpredictably.
