Connect the Module to the Network
Connect the module to the ControlNet network by using one of these
taps:
However, taps with a straight connector (catalog numbers 1786-TPS
and 1786-TPYS) are recommended because the BNC connectors are
located on the bottom of the module.
To connect the module to the network with a tap, perform this
procedure.
1. Remove and save the dust caps from the ControlNet taps.
WARNING
If you connect or disconnect the communications cable with power applied to
this module or any device on the network, an electrical arc can occur. This
could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.

ATTENTION
Do not allow any metal portions of the tap to contact any conductive material.
If you disconnect the tap from the module, place the dust cap back on the
straight or right-angle connector to prevent the connector from accidentally
contacting a metallic grounded surface.
