Install Your FLEX I/O VHSC Module

Install the Module

Installation of the module consists of:

• mount the terminal base unit

• install the 1794-VHSC module into the terminal base unit

• install the connecting wiring into the terminal base unit

If you are installing your module into a terminal base unit that is already installed,

proceed to See Mount on a DIN Rail

on page 18.

Mount on a DIN Rail

Install the Terminal Base Unit

1. Remove the cover plug in the male connector of the unit to which you are

connecting this terminal base unit.

2. Check to make sure that the 16 pins in the male connector on the adjacent

device are straight and in line so that the mating female connector on this

terminal base unit will mate correctly.

Make certain that the female FlexBus connector is fully retracted into the

base unit.

ATTENTION: Do not remove or replace a terminal base unit when

power is applied. Interruption of the FlexBus can result in unintended

operation or machine motion.
