make sure the mounting base locking screw is positioned horizontal in reference to
the base.

with the notch in the base.
2. Make certain the DIN rail locking screw is in the horizontal position.
You cannot insert the module if the locking mechanism is unlocked.
WARNING:
When you insert or remove the module while backplane power is
on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous
location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the
module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical
resistance that can affect module operation.
