If the node controller being replaced had eight or fewer connections, only one NC-S is
required for replacement. If the connections used only Ports 1–8, no changes are required. If
any connections used Ports 9–12, those connections must be reconfigured to one of the avail-
able ports on the NC-S.
When redistributing the connections, make sure that all connections for a node are made to the
same node controller.
