Setting Backup System Functions
On the bottom edge (Figure 1.7) near the rear of the scanner is a set of 4
switches. If you are using a backup configuration, then you can set
switches 2 and 3 to define the switchover type. For detailed information
on backup, refer to the PLC-3 Backup Concepts Manual (publication

Installing the Scanner
After you configure the scanner, insert the scanner into any slot of a:
PLC-3 processor chassis (cat. no. 1775-A1, -A2)
PLC-3/10 processor chassis (cat. no. 1775-A3)
PLC-3 and PLC-3/10 CPUs, scanners, and memories are not
interchangeable.
