Connecting Terminal Bases with DIN Rail Mounting
Complete the following steps to connect a terminal base to an FP-1300

Caution To avoid damaging the FP-1300 and the terminal bases, make sure that no power
is applied to the system while you install or remove terminal bases.

2. Attach the terminal base to the FP-1300 by firmly attaching the local
bus connectors. Be careful not to bend any pins.

local bus connectors together. In most cases, a single FP-1300
can support up to nine terminal bases, depending on the power
consumption of the I/O modules. Refer to the
