Damage to the contacts

Incorrect installation may result in damage to the contacts of the fieldbus modules.

The fieldbus modules may only be attached on the left-hand side of the basic CPU module.

A maximum of four fieldbus modules can be attached to the basic CPU module via the internal PCI Express bus. In delivery state the fieldbus module is equipped with a protective cap for the bus connector.
Before continuing, connect the fieldbus module to the basic CPU module.

Prerequisites for this step:
