(1) The maximum values for the number of I/O, application-specic channels, and the number of networks are not cumulative (they are limited by the maximum
number of slots in the conguration, 1 rack: 11, 2 racks: 23, 3 racks: 35 and 4 racks: 47.)
(2) The BMXNOC0402 communication module will be replaced by the BMENOC03p1 modules during the 2nd quarter of 2014.
