Fig 2.1.1 MC300 flush mount version
When installing the unit, insert it through the mounting hole from the front side and fasten with
screws. Use M6 screws for mounting. When mounting through metal surfaces like a control
system cubicle or control panel, be sure to clean the surfaces and use the washers supplied to
ensure good electrical connection through each screw for specified electromagnetic
compatibility.
The display/keyboard plastic membrane of the MC300 has transparent windows over the
keyswitches to enable use of custom legends on the switches. A white plastic background with
holes for the led lamps is also supplied for use with legends printed on transparent plastic.
Optionally, the MC300 can be delivered with a customer specific front plate.
To change the keyboard legends, first remove the 6 screws holding the plastic front plate.
Then lift off the front plate to access the keypad cavity behind the plastic membrane.
