8.2.3Marking of Modules

For the marking of modules and front connectors, a set of labels is supplied with the modules for the labeling, and a set of labels with the addresses is supplied with the central controller. Figure 8-9 shows the locations of the labels. The self-adhesive address label is pre-printed. You can mark the strips to identify the signal line terminals.
