2.6.2 Adding a new module in RSLogix 5000
You can place multiple modules in the same rack provided it does not exceed
the power distance rating of the CompactLogix rack (see page 10). Adding an
additional module to the rack is similar to installing a new module earlier in
this chapter. However, the name of the module must be unique.
