2.6.1. Mounting

The CANtrol E-I/O modules are intended for mounting rail installation (DIN EN 50022, 35 x 7.5 mm).

 Push up the module against the mounting rail from below,

allowing the metal spring to snap in between mounting

rail and mounting area as illustrated.

 Push the module above against the mounting wall until it

snaps in.

Rail mounting of module

CAUTION

There must be at least 100 mm clearance above and below the EC1000.

This guarantees the necessary convection cooling for the EC1000.

The mounting plate must be metal in order to ensure heat conduction.

To interconnect two modules

After snapping on the first module to the rail, snap on the second module about 1cm away towards the right

of the first module. Push the second module along the rail towards the first module until you hear the locking

device snap in.

To disconnect two modules

Push down the unlock button (see figure below) of the module that you wish to disconnect from the module

to the left of it. Push both modules away from one another until they are about 1 cm apart.
