Wall Mounting

The wall mounting option provides better shock and vibration resistance than the DIN
rail vertical mount.

Before the device can be mounted on a wall, you will need to remove the DIN rail
plate.

1.

On the installation site, place the device firmly against the wall. Make sure the 
device is vertically and horizontally level.

2.

Insert a pencil or pen through the screw holes on the mounting bracket to mark 
the location of the screw holes on the wall.

3.

Remove the device from the wall and drill holes over each marked location (4) 
on the wall, keeping in mind that the holes must accommodate wall sinks in 
addition to the screws.

4.

Insert the wall sinks into the walls.

5.

Align the mounting bracket over the screw holes on the wall.

6.

Starting with the upper bracket, insert a screw through the bracket and rotate it 
to secure. Do not tighten at this point. Repeat for the remaining locations, see 
the following figure.

Figure 2.5 Wall Mount Installation

7.

Once the device is installed on the wall, tighten the screws to secure the device.

Note!

When installing, make sure to allow for enough space to properly install 
the cabling.
