lowpass filter SCC module. Figure 17 shows how to install analog input 
modules on the SC-2345 carrier.

Sometimes, you can cascade two analog input SCC modules together on a 
single analog input channel to form a dual-stage configuration. The first 
stage of a dual-stage analog input configuration can be in sockets J9 to J16. 
The second stage of a dual-stage analog input configuration can be in 
sockets J1 to J8.

Single- and Dual-Stage Analog Input SCC Configuration 

for SC-2345 Connector Block Socket

Table 3 shows all the analog input SCC modules that you can configure 
on the SC-2345 carrier and whether the modules support single-stage, 
dual-stage, or both configurations.
