Notes:
1. Omit digits that do not apply.
2. Specify modules from lowest number of outputs to highest. (Single/Dual/Triple)
3. If number of outputs are equal, specify modules from highest to lowest power increments. If
power increments are equal, specify in descending alphabetical order (1A, B, C . . .).
4. Always start with Slot 1.
5. All MP model configurations created using this selection guide are standard MP products with
standard availability and lead times.
6. Optional VME/DCOK module must always be located in the last slot. Module designator is “VME”.
