NOTE: Bridge connectors transmit both communication signals and power supply between modules. Removing bridge connectors will interrupt the transmission of both communication signals and power supply between the modules.

Dismounting Sockets

Disconnecting Sockets

Release all bridge connectors before removing the XCL8010AU Controller Module and/or the terminal sockets from the DIN rail.

Press down at the same time both the gray side wings next to the red button and then pull the bridge connector out of the module.

Mounting Electronic Modules

NOTE: Electronic modules can be removed from the socket or inserted into the sockets without switching off the power supply. The behavior of connected field devices must be taken into consideration.

Make sure that terminal socket und I/O module match.

Make sure that the red locking mechanism is in the open, i.e., left, position.

Gently push the electronic module onto the terminal socket until snug.
