7.3 Adding and connecting expansion modules

About this task

Accessories that require an IO expansion module (TC1.2, TC1.4, etc.) should be connected to the controller using either a connector or cable attached to the end of the module.

Procedure

  1. Attach the connector to the expansion module that is not attached.
  2. Mount the module to the DIN rail.
  3. Remove the protective plastic in front of the controller connector.
  4. Push the module connector into the controller.
  5. Set the address of the module with the DIP switches.

    The correct DIP switch positions for each expansion module can be found in the electrical diagram of the module in question.

    Set the DIP switch 6 to the ON position on the last expansion module.
