DIN Rail Mount Kit Installation
NOTE: If the Processor uses a Compact Flash card, horizontal mounting is recommended (the Processor
front facing upward) so the card does not fall out due to vibration.
To mount the Processor using the DIN Rail Mount kit (see diagram):
1.
To fasten the mounting bracket to the bracket holding plate, insert the bracket mounting screws from the
reverse side of the bracket holding plate.
Be sure to use the appropriate holes in the holding plate for the desired bracket orientation —horizontal or
vertical. The part of the bracket that contains the butterfly clip should be on the bottom.
2.
Fasten the bracket holding plate onto the bottom of the processor using the plate mounting screws.
3.
Hook the bottom of the mounting bracket in the bottom flange of the DIN rail. The butterfly clips will offer
some resistance.
4.
While exerting slight upward force, clip the top of the mounting bracket over the top flange of the DIN rail.
5.
Verify that the bracket is clipped securely to the rail.
