The DX-700 enables you to store spare modules within a chassis.
Use the following steps to store spare modules in your DX-700 chassis:
1. Configure a bank properly, according to the rules outlined in the “Module
Configuration Rules” section on page55.
2. Install a blank panel immediately to the left of the bank’s left-most input module.
3. In the remaining slots, insert spare input and output modules as desired. The
DX-700 will ignore these modules during initialization, and treat them as spares.

Caution Always push both latches simultaneously. If you use one
latch only, you can damage the module.
