Module Installation

Compact I/O is suitable for use in an industrial environment when installed
in accordance with these instructions.

Prevent Electrostatic Discharge

Remove Power

ATTENTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated
circuits or semiconductors if you touch bus connector pins or the
terminal block. Follow these guidelines when you handle the
module:

Touch a grounded object to discharge static potential.

Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding device.

Do not touch the bus connector or connector pins.

Do not touch circuit components inside the module.

Use a static-safe work station, if available.

When not in use, keep the module in its static-shield box.

ATTENTION: Remove power before removing or inserting this
module. When you remove or insert a module with power applied,
an electrical arc may occur. An electrical arc can cause personal
injury or property damage by:

sending an erroneous signal to your system’s field devices,
causing unintended machine motion.

causing an explosion in a hazardous environment.

Electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the
module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical
resistance.
