Precautions for Installation
3.1.1 Installation
(1) For system configuration through FEnet I/F module
1) Check the basic factors necessary for system configuration so to select an appropriate
communication module.
2) Select the cable to be used for communication module to use. (only one is available between
10/100 BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX).
3) Before installing communication module, check if there is no foreign element on the connector of
base and module, and no damage on the connector pin of the module.
4) All kinds of communication modules can be installed on the extension base fundamentally,
however, it is recommended to install communication modules on the slot as near as possible to
CPU.
5) For installation of the module, exactly insert the protuberant part at the bottom of the module with
the communication cable disconnected into the base groove and then apply enough strength until
its top is locked up with the locking device of the base. If the lock is not applied, it may cause an
error on the interface with CPU.
6) The cable available for the communication module shall be installed with one type only between
10/ 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX.
7) Select standard products of switching hub and cable, which are necessary for communication
with FEnet I/F module.
(2) For system configuration through switch module
1) Check the
foreign substance at the connector and damage of connector pin
2)
This module gets power from base so this module is not recognized by CPU. This module can
be installed on any base. (main or extension)
3) For installation of the module, exactly insert the protuberant part at the bottom of the module
with the communication cable disconnected into the base groove and then apply enough
strength until its top is locked up with the locking device of the base. If the lock is not applied, it
may cause detachment.
4) 10/100BASE-TX can be applied to this switch module.
