Check the ribbon cable connections very carefully to be sure you haven't bent a pin or torn a cable.

In general, you just enter the expansion modules in the I/O configuration and the controller recognizes them.   

You might have a bad expansion port on the controller itself.     Talk to your distributor to see if you can test your I/O modules with one of their demos.
