1.6.1 Open the Top Cover
The
IOT400 series is design for universal data logging use. There are various interfaces for connecting to your
field devices, and enclosed with an IP65 grade enclosure. All the connection cables to the field devices must be
wired properly through the M16 connectors.
Therefore, prior to connecting and configuring the IOT400, you have to open the top cover to get access to the
control board.
Unscrew the four screws and remove the top cover to the side carefully.
You can see there are lots of hardware connectors available for you to configure. There are two spring-type
Terminal Blocks, Battery Stand, Power Socket and Switch, etc...
