AT6200/AT6400 Installation Guide

Mounting

This mounting procedure will not ensure CE compliance.  Refer to Appendix A for specific
CE installation instructions.

To mount the AUX board, you must first attach the mounting brackets.  The mounting
brackets and 6-32 (0.25-inch) mounting screws are provided in the ship kit.  Do not use screws
longer than 0.25 inches; they protrude too far into the box and may damage the AUX board.

Observe the following mounting precautions:

• Mount the AUX board within the reach of the supplied 5-foot indexer-to-AUX  cable.

You may not lengthen or shorten this cable.  You can order custom cables up
to 15 feet  from Compumotor's Custom Products Group at (800) 358-9068.  A 15-foot
cable is available (part number 71-012832-15).

• If you mount the AUX board in an enclosure with other equipment, be sure to maintain

at least 6 inches of unrestricted air-flow space around the board.  The maximum
allowable ambient temperature directly below the AUX board is 122

°

F (50

°

C).  Fan

cooling may be necessary if adequate air flow is not provided.

Environmental Considerations

Temperature

Operate the AT6n00 in ambient temperatures between 32

°

F (0

°

C) and 122

°

F (50

°

C)

Humidity

Keep below 95%, non-condensing.

Airborne
Contaminants,
Liquids

Particulate contaminants, especially electrically conductive material, such as metal shavings
and grinding dust, can damage the AT6n00.  Do not allow liquids or fluids to come in contact
with the AT6n00 card, its AUX board, or its cables.
