2. Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure there

are at least two inches of space on all sides for proper air flow.

3. If installing a single switch only, go to “Connecting to a Power Source” at the

end of this chapter.

4. If installing multiple switches, attach four adhesive feet to each one. Place each

device squarely on top of the one below, in any order.

Installing an Optional Module into the Switch

Figure 3-4. Installing an Optional Module

Caution: DO NOT install slide-in modules with the switch powered on. Be sure you

power off the switch before installing any module.

Note: The stacking module must only be installed in slot Module 2.

To install an optional module into the switch, do the following:

1. Disconnect power to the switch.

2. Remove the blank metal plate (or a previously installed module) from the

appropriate slot by removing the two screws with a flat-head screwdriver.

3. With the module still in the anti-static bag, touch the metal frame of the switch to

prevent damage caused by static electricity discharge. Also, it is recommended

to use an ESD wrist strap during installation.

4. Remove the module from the anti-static shielded bag.
