During the auto configuration disabled period, you cannot set the USB-87Pn unit.   
The following error message will appear when you click the name of USB-87Pn unit.   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
When  auto  configuration  is  disabled,  you  won't  be  able  to  fix  a  damaged  I/O  module  by 
replacing with a new one only, because their settings (e.g. type code) are different. You have 
to re-configure the module for maintaining the normal operation.
