4.1.2 Simulated MP940 Building Block Configuration
The MP940 is a one-unit Machine Controller that saves space by incorporating into a single
unit several hardware modules comprising separate functional units.
Parameter settings for each of these functional modules are made in the same operating envi-
ronment as for building-block Machine Controllers. This makes it easy to simulate a build-
ing-block structure when developing an all-in-one configuration. The following diagram
shows how the MP940 can be configured in such a simulated building-block structure.

With the MP940, slot numbers 00 to 06 in Rack 1 must be set. Slot No. 1 is reserved for sys-
tem use.
