• Modules are to install adjacent to each other. Gaps are not permitted
between the modules since this would interrupt the backplane bus.
• A module is only installed properly and connected electrically when it
has clicked into place with an audible click.
• Plug-in locations after the last module may remain unoccupied.
Note!
A maximum of 32 modules can be connected at the back plane bus. Take
attention that here the maximum sum current of 3.5A is not exceeded.
