Installing the Hardware
4. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the captive screws on each side of the DC
power supply to secure it to the chassis.
5. Attach wires to the terminal blocks on the front of the unit. To attach a wire, loosen the
terminal screw, insert the exposed end of the wire, and tighten the terminal screw.
6. Connect the safety ground wire to a reliable earth ground.
7. Connect the DC input wiring to a DC power source. See Figure 29 on page 57 and
Figure 30 on page 57 for a diagram of the wiring connections between the XP and a
DC power source.
Installing the Control Module
The primary control module always resides in the CM slot. If you need to replace the
primary control module in the CM slot, or you want to install a redundant control module
in slot CM/1, use the following procedure. You will need a #2 Phillips screwdriver to
perform this procedure.
The primary control module must be installed in slot CM. The redundant control module
must be installed in slot CM/1. (See Chassis on page 10 for information about the chassis
slots.)
Figure 31 shows an example of how to install a control module. The procedure following
the figure describes how to do this.
