6.2.2
Connecting Several ES400 Modules Mechanically
You can combine any ES400 modules with each other using the integrated
assembly elements of the ES400 modules.
Here, you connect the ES400 modules using the integrated assembly elements.

Rules on Connecting the Modules
Observe the following rules when connecting the modules as required:
6.2.2.2
Preparing the Modules
To position the modules:
1. Position the modules to be connected in the required order.
2. Position the modules so that their fronts are in a line.
3. Hold the two modules together firmly on their outer sides.
6.2.2.3
Connecting the Modules
To connect several ES400 modules, you require a 2 mm Allen key (minimum
length 20 mm).
TIP
The two integrated assembly elements can only be accessed from the right-
hand side of the module and can only be turned using an Allen key.
When connecting the modules, you must therefore always screw the module
on the right to the module on its left.
You can only successively screw additional modules, but not module blocks,
onto the right-hand side of this module block.
When creating module blocks, observe the defined order.
TIP
Both modules’ ports must point left.
