At the time of installation, rotate the keys on the module

and the connector so that they can be connected together

securely. It is recommended that, for modules so

equipped, the keys on each successive module in the

rack be rotated one position to the right of the keys on the

preceding module.
If you use this method, the keys on each connector will be

positioned in such a way as to fit together only with a

specific module, and there will be little chance of the

wrong connector being attached to a module.

Step 7.

Turn on power to the system.

Step 8.

Verify the installation by connecting the programming

terminal to the system and running the ReSource

Software.
Stop all programs that may be running.
Use the MONITOR I/O function in DCS 5000/AutoMax

systems or POINT MONITOR function in AutoMate

systems.
Toggle each of the input devices connected to the input

module one at a time to verify that the installation has

been completed correctly.
