3.5 Control unit installation
Avoid mounting the control unit(s) where it is easily exposed to
sunlight, as this will shorten the lifetime of the displays. If this is not
possible, make sure the units are always covered with the white
protection cover when not used.

mounting
• Drill holes for the connectors and the 2 fastening screws (4x25mm)
by using the panel mounting template as a guide. Make sure there is
enough space behind the panel for the cables/connectors.
• Screw the 2 fastening screw studs into the 2 holes at the back of the
Control unit (They will easily self-tap into the plastic).
• Connect the Robnet cables to the control unit connectors. Insert the
screw studs into the holes in the panel.
• Thread the two plastic "finger nuts" onto the screw studs from the
back side and tighten them by hand. USE NO TOOLS!
