The following sections contain instructions for the mounting methods. Before using any of
these mounting methods, record the serial number from the back of the chassis. You will be
unable to read the serial number after you have mounted the chassis.
Caution
Make sure that no I/O modules are in the chassis before mounting it.
Mounting the Chassis on a DIN Rail
Use the DIN rail mounting method if you already have a DIN rail configuration or if you need
to be able to remove the chassis quickly. You can order the NI 9916 DIN rail mount kit if you
want to mount the chassis on a DIN rail. You need one clip for mounting the chassis on a
standard 35 mm DIN rail. Complete the following steps to mount the chassis on a DIN rail.
1.
Fasten the DIN rail clip to the chassis using a number 2 Phillips screwdriver and three
M4 x 50 screws. NI provides these screws with the DIN rail mount kit. Tighten the
screws to a maximum torque of 1.3 N · m (11.5 lb · in.).
