Function
The interface module pair IM 460-0 (send IM) and IM 461-0 (receive IM) are used
for a local link. The communication bus is transferred at the full transmission rate.
Parameter Assignment for the Mounting Rack Number
Using the DIP switch on the front panel of the module, you must set the number of
the mounting rack in which the receive IM is installed. The permitted range is 1 to
21.
Setting/Changing the Number
Proceed as follows:
1. Put the switch of the power supply module in the EU in which you want to make
a change in the position (Output voltage 0 V).
2. Enter the number using the DIP switch.
3. Switch the power supply module on again.
