NOTE
The 1746-BAS-T is a higher-speed version of the 1746-BAS
module with identical hardware features. The modules can be
interchanged, except that the 1746-BAS-T uses different
(optional) memory modules. Due to the high speed of the
1746-BAS-T, existing programs written for the 1746-BAS may
require adjustment for identical operation using the faster
1746-BAS-T module.
