Mounting the Traffic Controller
Separate mounting of the Traffic Controller if only required for the TIC502 and TIC501
system functions. For the TIC102, the Traffic Controller is installed in the housing of the
TIC102.
WARNING
Consider the protection class
▸
The Traffic Controller has an IP 20 protection class rating and must always be mounted
in an electric or control cabinet.
NOTE
The Traffic Controller must not be opened. The hard drive is already integrated into the
device.
The Traffic Controller should be mounted in a suitable location inside the control cabinet
at the measurement site.
Ideally, it should be mounted near the higher-level control but never in the vicinity of
transformers or other power units.
In order to accommodate the leads and wiring, there must be enough terminals available.
Mounting
▸
Install the Traffic Controller in a suitable location inside the control cabinet.
To do this, use the M4 thread in the Traffic Controller.
The Traffic Controller does not have active cooling. For optimum heat dissipation inside
the control cabinet, we recommend mounting it on a metal plate.

4 ports

switch with least
4 ports
are required to use several TIC501.
For the TIC102, the Ethernet switch is installed in the housing of the TIC102.
▸
Mount the Ethernet switch in a suitable location inside the control cabinet.
