Wall mounting
If your mounting site does not provide a top hat rail, you can screw the
device directly to a flat solid base, like e.g. a wall.
Ø
For this, you first have to remove the rail clamps from the rear end of
the mounting bracket, which are attached to the bracket with two
hexagon head screws. Use an M4 Allen key to remove the screws:

Ø
After having removed the rail clamps, hold the rear end of the mounting
bracket at the desired position and mark the two places where the
threads for the screws are to be cut into the wall.
Ø
Use the M4 tap to cut an M4 thread at each of the two marked points, if
necessary pre-drill with a drilling machine first.
Ø
Use the Allen wrench/key respectively screwdriver and two M4 cylinder
head screws of suitable length to screw the mounting bracket to the
wall.
