Install your TPS 8200TX and 8400TX security devices
5
To insert an I/O module, slide the module into the empty module slot. When the module is in the
correct position, the slide latch automatically slides into position.
Important:
When you insert a bypass I/O module, the bypass I/O module always starts up in bypass
mode. A bypass I/O module remains in bypass mode until you remove it from bypass mode through the CLI,
LSM, or SMS. Rebooting the TPS does not change the bypass mode of the bypass I/O module. For
information about how to disable bypass mode, see your product documentation on the TMC.

port to the network to enable remote management of the device.
