DIN Rail Analog Output Module
Installation & Operation Guide

  1.  Place the top of the DIN-AO8’s rail mount over the top of the DIN rail.
  2.  Tilt the bottom of the DIN-AO8 toward the DIN rail until it snaps into place.

NOTE

:  When mounting DIN rail products, it may be necessary to use a flat-head 

screwdriver to pull the DIN rail release tab while snapping the device onto the DIN rail.

NOTE

:  Certain third-party DIN cabinets provide space for an informational label 

between each DIN rail row. Crestron’s Engraver software (version 4.0 or later) can 
generate appropriate labels for all Crestron DIN rail products.

to do so may result in serious personal injury or damage to the device. Restore power 
after all connections have been made.

CAUTION

:  Connecting this device to the wrong type of load or short-circuiting the load 

can cause severe product damage. Each load should be tested to identify a short-circuit 
condition prior to wiring the load to the module.

NOTE

:  Use copper wire only. 

NOTE

:  Each switch leg of the DIN-AO8 may be fed from a separate circuit breaker.

When making OUTPUTS, NET, and OVERRIDE connections, strip the ends of the wires 
approximately 7/16 in (11 mm). Use care to avoid nicking the conductors. Tighten the 
connector to 5 in-lb (0.5 to 0.6 N-m). The wire gauge should be 14 to 26 AWG.
When making power connections to the DIN-AO8, use a Crestron power supply.
