Note
If the number of components is set to "0" when selecting the DRIVE-CLiQ type, the field
automatically becomes optional.
If the number of components is set to "1", e.g. for Sensor Modules, then a specification has
to be made as to whether this can be a "Single" or "Double" Sensor Module.
The number of components is only relevant for Sensor and Terminal Modules. For other

"SMC40" and similar third-party devices.
