The IC670FBI001 requires proper alignment for correct operation. Secured cable connections are obligatory for system performance. Installation of modules does not need any special tools. However, users must ensure proper alignment during installation. The hot insertion feature allows module replacement without system shutdown.

Installation Guide

Follow these steps to install the IC670FBI001 properly. Mount the I/O base on a flat, grounded panel surface. Connect the AC or DC power source to the terminal block. For AC operation, supply 90 to 135 VAC at 47 to 63 Hz. For DC operation, supply 105 to 150 VDC. Do not exceed the maximum inrush current of 20 Amps. Align the module with the keying slots on the terminal block. Insert the module straight into the base without tilting. Push firmly until the module seats completely. Secure all cable connections to prevent loosening from vibration. Use the projecting alignment slot for easy module guidance. Verify the power supply output shows 6.5 VDC. Check that the holdup time does not exceed 20 milliseconds. Power up the system and verify normal operation. No special tools are needed for installation or removal.
