Adding and Removing Modules
Right-clicking is an important function in station
configuration and in the addition or placement of
modules within the device tree.
To Add a Module
1. Ensure that the station is offline. Highlight the
core device of the station to which the module is
to be added.
2. Right-click and select the “Add Module” pop-
up menu item. Select the desired module type.
You may also select the
Edit dropdown menu and
click “Add Module”.
Note:
When placing or replacing a module in your system
configuration, you must “Disconnect” from the
Communications drop down menu and cycle down
power before disconnecting or reconnecting to your
system. Once you have placed your desired
modules, you may reconnect and repeat the
steps in “Connecting to the Network”.
3. The selected module type with default
module/channel configuration will be added to the
last module position in the station.
4. You may upload the configuration present in
the module or modify the configuration to your
requirements and download the configuration to
your system.
To Delete a Module

2. Right-click the module you want to delete and
select “Delete” in the pop-up menu.
You may also select the
Edit dropdown menu and

Saving Your Configuration
When saving your system configuration, you must

Device Tree Indicators
You will notice different colored indicator lights in the
device tree. These are meant to indicate the status
of connected modules. For a guide to the meaning of
different colors, open the
Help dropdown menu and
select “Tree Indicators Legend”.

At the bottom of the NCS Configuration Software
screen is a log that indicates system messages and
operations. You may clear the log at any time by right-
clicking and selecting “Clear”.
To Add a New Interface Module
To add another Interface Module into your system,
