6. Before installing the new adapter, notice the notch on the right rear of
the adapter. This notch accepts the hook on the terminal base unit.
The notch is open at the bottom. The hook and adjacent connection
point keep the terminal base and the adapter tight together, reducing
the possibility of a break in communication over the backplane.
7. Complete the adapter mounting as shown below.
8. If the adapter module does not lock in place, use a screwdriver or
similar device to move the locking tab down while pressing the
adapter module flush onto the DIN rail, and release the locking tab to
lock the adapter module in place. If necessary, push up on the locking
tab to lock.
9. Reinstall the module in the adjacent terminal base unit.
Connect the Wiring
1. Connect the remote I/O cable to the removable remote I/O
connector.
2. Connect +V DC power to the left side of the lower connector,
terminal A.
3. Connect -V common to the left side of the upper connector,
terminal B.
4. Connections C and D are used to pass +V DC power (D) and -V
common (C) to the next module in the series (if required).
Set the Addressing Mode Switches
1. Lift the hinged switch cover on the front of the adapter to expose the
switches.
2. Set the switches as shown below.
3. Cycle power to the adapter after setting the switches.
ATTENTION
Do not wire more than 2 conductors on any single terminal.

WARNING
If you connect or disconnect wiring while the field-side power is on, 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.

Push down and in at the same
time to lock the adapter to the
DIN rail.
When the adapter is locked onto the DIN
rail, gently push the FlexBus connector into
the adapter to complete the backplane

ATTENTION
If this is the last adapter, you must terminate the remote I/O link here. Use a
terminating resistor connected across terminals 1 and 2. Refer to your processor
manual for information on the size of the resistor.
WARNING
When you change switch settings while power is on, 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
Some switches on this adapter differ from the switches on previous versions.
Make certain that you identify each switch before setting.

1 In Standard mode, this switch retains its function as switch position 1 of rack addressing.
In standard mode, the module is functionally interchangeable with 1794-ASB series A or B
adapters.
2 In compact mode, 32-point modules appear as 8 or 16-point modules.
3 When programming block transfers, address analog modules as module 0 if switch S1-1
is on; module 1 if switch S1-1 is off.
