Interconnecting Modules
Take the CPU and first expansion module, position them on a level surface and
press them carefully together so that all pins of the expansion module plug are
precisely inserted into the CPU socket.
Then plug the other modules successively into the assembled group (see
Figure 8-8).
e. g. EXM 478
e. g. ATM 478
e. g. MSM 478

Interconnecting a CPU and Expansion Modules
Note
Note that there are rules on the number of connectable expansion modules and on
the sequence of the modules following the CPU. These rules are listed in the
Reference Manual under the chapter on M7-400 expansion.
