CARRIER ADDRESS ASSIGNMENT
Following are the instructions for setting the slot address of the carrier. By
assigning a unique address to each carrier, system software can distinguish
this carrier from other similarly configured carriers installed in a system.
Figure 2 below shows the location of switch SW1. Set the switch state as
shown in Table below to assign a unique slot address to this carrier. Note:
switch positions are indicated on the switch. Factory default address is zero.

ACROPACK MODULE INSTALLATION
Power should be removed from the carrier board when installing an AcroPack
module, cables, termination panels, and field wiring. Refer to Figure 2 while
reading this section. To install, first insert the edge of the AcroPack module
into the carrier connector at an angle similar to that shown in the figure. Next,
using a rocking motion while gently applying force to keep the edge of the
board against the back of the carrier connector, position the module such that
the field I/O connector is just above the mating connector. Verify that the two
connectors are properly aligned. Once alignment is achieved, you can fully
seat the connector. It will snap into place. Install two M2.5 screws as shown.
