Requirements
If CX32‑2 controller extensions are used, then to ensure mechanical stability
● the CX32‑2 controller extensions and
● the CX32‑2 controller extension with SIMOTION D4x5‑2 control unit
must be connected to each other via a bracket.
Procedure
Like the standard "vertical installation on the control cabinet wall" mounting position, each
module must be attached to a mechanically stable base via two M6 screws.
For the mechanical connection between two CX32‑2, the screw (Torx 10) on the connection
bracket must be loosened and the bracket turned so that the pin is in the opening of the bracket.
The screw must then be tightened again with a torque of 0.8 Nm.
For the mechanical connection between the CX32‑2 and the D4x5‑2, the bracket must be
disassembled from its original position and attached to the shield terminal.

Mounting without spacers
Like the standard "vertical installation" mounting position, mounting without spacers is also
possible for the "horizontal" mounting position.
How spacers are removed is described in Section Installing the SIMOTION D4x5-2 (Page 36).

Technical data / approvals / certifications
The same technical data, approvals and certifications apply for the "horizontal" mounting
position as for the standard "vertical installation" mounting position.
The technical data can be found in the
SIMOTION D4x5‑2 Manual.
