Installing Your Module

Publication 1771-UM001A-US-P - February 2000

You need to set configuration plugs on the remote I/O adapter
module to use 32-point I/O modules, . You access the plugs through
the access hole on the left side of the module (Figure 2.2). Each plug
is inserted on two pins of a three-pin connector. Thermocouple Input
Modules (Cat. No. 1771-IX and -IY) are not compatible with
32-point I/O modules.

NOTE: Configuration jumpers may be in either position, depending upon production date.

Important: When you set the configuration plugs in the left

position, you can use 32-point I/O modules and any
addressing method, but you cannot use Cat. No.
1771-IX or 1771-IY modules. When you set these plugs
in the right position, you can use 1771-IX and 1771-IY
modules and any addressing method, but you cannot
use 32-point I/O modules. If the plugs are set
incorrectly, addressing errors will occur.

If you need to use a thermocouple module and 32-point I/O modules
in the same remote chassis, use the 1771-IXE
Thermocouple/Millivolt Module (Cat. No. 1771-IXE).

Set switch assemblies S1 and S2 (Figure 2.3) with a blunt, pointed
instrument such as a ball-point pen. Do not use a pencil; the lead
could break off and jam the switch.

This publication describes switches as being either on or off. The
words ON and OFF should be printed on the switch assemblies. If a
switch assembly has the word OPEN printed on it, the word OPEN
corresponds to OFF.
