Installation Guidelines
Ensure the PLC system is powered down before installing or removing the CPU baseplate or any I/O modules.
The baseplate should be mounted in a clean, dry environment with adequate ventilation to maintain operating temperatures within the specified range.
Use proper ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) precautions when handling the module to prevent damage to internal circuitry.
Ensure the power supply is correctly seated in the designated slot before applying power.
Verify that all field wiring is properly secured and routed away from high-EMI sources to maintain signal integrity.
