Mounting Your Controller Horizontally
The controller should be mounted horizontally within an enclosure using either the
DIN rail or mounting screw option. Use the mounting template from the front of
this document to help you space and mount the controller properly.
ATTENTION: Be careful of metal chips when drilling mounting holes
for your controller. Drilled fragments that fall into the controller could
!
cause damage. Do not drill holes above a mounted controller if the
protective wrap is removed.
Using a DIN Rail
To install your controller on the DIN rail:
1. Mount your DIN rail. (Make sure that the
placement of the controller on the DIN rail
meets the recommended spacing
requirements. Refer to the mounting
template from the front of this document.)
2. Hook the top slot over the DIN rail.
3. While pressing the controller against the
rail, snap the controller into position.
4. Leave the protective wrap attached until you
are finished wiring the controller.
To remove your controller from the DIN rail:
1. Place a screwdriver in the DIN rail latch at
the bottom of the controller.
2. Holding the controller, pry downward on
the latch until the controller is released
from the DIN rail.
