Mounting the NIE
Wall Mount Applications
Use the holes in the three mounting clips for wall mount applications.
To mount the NIE on a wall (or other vertical surface):
1. Ensure that all three mounting clips are inserted into the back of the NIE housing and then pulled outward and
snapped firmly into the extended position ( Figure 3 ).
2. Mark the location of the three wall mount holes using the dimensions in Figure 2 .
3. Drill holes in the wall at the locations marked in Step 2 and insert wall anchors (if necessary).

4. Position the NIE and insert the screws through the holes in the mounting clips, and carefully tighten all the screws.
Important: Do not overtighten the mounting screws. Overtightening the screws may damage the mounting
clips or NIE housing.
DIN Rail Mount Applications
To mount the NIE on a DIN rail:
1. Securely mount a 20 cm (8 in.) or longer section of DIN rail horizontally and centered in the required space.
2. Ensure that the bottom two mounting clips are pulled outward and snapped firmly into the extended position
( Figure 3 ).
