Determine Module Slot Location

You can use the ControlLogix-XT chassis that suits your application
requirements. The 1756-DHRIOXT modules can be:

• installed in any open chassis slot.

• used in multiples in one chassis, within the limits of the

ControlLogix-XT power supply.

Installing and Removing the Module Under Power

WARNING

When you insert or remove the module while backplane 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.
Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the
module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical
resistance that can affect module operation.
