Mounting
11. If you have empty slots on the active backplane bus, then you must provide these slots with
a slot protection (see Operation (Page 15)).
12. A "BACKPLANE" sticker is enclosed for the active backplane bus. Use this sticker to identify
the interface module. So you can see even with a fully equipped active backplane bus that
the I/O modules can be pulled without any reaction.

Slots
The empty slots need to be provided with a slot protection. The slot protection is used to
secure mechanically and to protect the contacts.
