Replacing a Single Module within a System

The module can be replaced while the system is mounted to a panel (or DIN rail).

1. Remove power. See important note on page 3.

2. On the module to be removed, remove the upper and lower mounting

screws from the module (or open the DIN latches using a flat-blade or
phillips style screw driver).

3. Move the bus lever to the right to disconnect (unlock) the bus.

4. On the right-side adjacent module, move its bus lever to the right (unlock)

to disconnect it from the module to be removed.

5. Gently slide the disconnected module forward. If you feel excessive

resistance, check that the module has been disconnected from the bus, and
that both mounting screws have been removed (or DIN latches opened).

Note:

It may be necessary to rock the module slightly from front to back
to remove it, or, in a panel-mounted system, to loosen the screws of
adjacent modules.

6. Before installing the replacement module, be sure that the bus lever on the

module to be installed, and on the right-side adjacent module are in the
unlocked (fully right) position.

7. Slide the replacement module into the open slot.

8. Connect the modules together by locking (fully left) the bus levers on the

replacement module and the right-side adjacent module.

9. Replace the mounting screws (or snap the module onto the DIN rail).

Grounding the Module

This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface
such as a metal panel. Additional grounding connections from the module’s
mounting tabs or DIN rail (if used), are not required unless the mounting surface
cannot be grounded. Refer to Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding
Guidelines
, Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1, for additional information.
