Linking

4.  Plug the link connector of each unit into the link connector of the 

next unit.

5.  After plugging in the link connectors, use the link plates and screws 

to provisionally join the units as shown below.

Use the screws removed in step 1.

Why not to use other screws:

Too short screws will not properly secure the plate.

Too long screws may damage parts inside the unit.

Plug into link connector

Front side

Rolled up link 
connector and 
cable

Unit bottom

Front side

Unit bottom

After connecting link connectors, 
provisionally join units with 
supplied link plates.
(Do not fully tighten screws yet. 
Only rotate all four M3 flat-head 
screws by about a half turn.)

Mount cover plate on leftmost 
unit as seen from the front
