REMOVING MODULES FROM THE MOD HUB Before removing the modules from the MOD HUB, turn the unit off by depressing the power switch located on the front panel of the MOD HUB. Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Disconnect the cables from the connectors on the module that is being removed. Dislodging Modules From The MOD HUB Loosen the module from the MOD HUB unit by unscrewing both of the captive screws with your fingers. The captive screws are located on each end of the module.
Tighten the captive screws on the module panel with your fingers and fasten them in the locking position. Attach the cables running from each device in the ARCNET LAN to the appropriate module connectors on the newlyinstalled expansion module. Refer to the MOD HUB Series User Manual, Chapter 2, to test the module for proper working operation.
