The WEB-645-AX circuit board provides one 30-pin option card slot, compatible with WEB-200/600 style option cards. Option
card usage is supported only if the unit is configured with WEBs-AX (and
not
WEB R2).

Power to the controller must be OFF when installing or removing an option card, or damage will occur!Also, you
must be very careful to plug an option card into the connector properly (pins aligned).
Refer to the installation document that accompanies a specific option card for complete details.
