Installing the
Thermocouple/Millivolt Input
Module
This chapter gives you information on:
• calculating the chassis power requirement
• choosing the module’s location in the I/O chassis
• keying a chassis slot for your module
• wiring the input module’s field wiring arm
• installing the input module
Before installing your input module in the I/O chassis you must:

The thermocouple/mV input module is sensitive to electrostatic
discharge.
!
ATTENTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage
integrated circuits or semiconductors if you touch
backplane connector pins. Follow these guidelines
when you handle the module:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge static potential
• Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding device
• Do not touch the backplane connector or
connector pins
• Do not touch circuit components inside the module
• If available, use a static-safe work station
• When not in use, keep the module in its
static-shield bag
