4. Installing the W345

 

Wall or Cabinet Mounting 

The W345 embedded computers have built-in “ears” 
for attaching the embedded computers to a wall or 
the inside of a cabinet. We suggest using two screws 
per ear to attach the W345 to a wall or cabinet. The 
heads of the screws should be less than 6.0 mm in 
diameter, and the shafts should be less than 3.5 mm 
in diameter, as shown by the figure at the right. 

6.0 mm

3.5 mm

DIN-Rail Mounting

 

DIN-rail attachments can be purchased separately to attach the product to 
a DIN-rail. When snapping the attachments to the DIN-rail, make sure 
that the stiff metal springs are at the top.
