9457 Industrial Computer
3-20
To mount the monitor module, follow the instructions below:
1.
Locate a position for your 9457 that meets the unit’s operating specifications. Refer
to Appendix A and the previous sections in this chapter for these values.
2.
Add the cutout (as shown in Figure Chapter 3 -11) to the enclosure. To provide a
NEMA 4/4X/12 seal, the unit must be mounted in an approved enclosure with a
14 gauge (.075"/1.9mm minimum thickness) steel or (.125"/3.2 mm minimum thick-
ness) aluminum front face.
If you intend to install the front floppy door, cut and drill the panel to include the
cutout for this door, shown as optional in Figure Chapter 3 -11.
3.
Make sure the area around the cutout is clean and free from metal burrs.
4.
Implement the proper grounding techniques. Establish a ground path from the 9457
chassis to the enclosure chassis.
Note
To make a proper ground, scrape paint off the inside of the enclosure panel around
mounting stud holes (in at least two places) at opposing ends of the unit. This insures
that a good electrical connection is made between the chassis and the grounded metal
panel.
5.
Install the monitor module into the cutout. Torque the 14 mounting nuts to 35 in/lbs
(3.95 Nm).
6.
Re-attach the computer module.
7.
If you have mounted the floppy drive for access from the front of the computer mod-
ule, and have purchased the 9457-FFK Front Floppy Kit, mount the floppy drive ac-
cess door provided with the kit to the panel. Do this in the manner shown in Figure
Chapter 3 -5. Torque the nuts provided with the door to 35 in/lb (3.95 Nm).
Mounting the Computer Module to the Monitor Module
The 9457 computer module is designed so that it may be slide-mounted underneath and
hung from the monitor module, once the monitor module has been installed in a panel.
To mount the computer module to the monitor module, perform the steps described be-
low.
1.
Mount the monitor module in a panel, as described above.
2.
Verify that the top panel of the computer module is securely in place.
3.
Line up the flanges at the top side edges of the computer module with the tracks on
the lower side edges of the monitor module, as shown in Figure Chapter 3 -12, and
slide the monitor module onto the computer module.
4.
Thread the two thumbscrews on the brackets on the back of the computer module
into the monitor module, then tighten them firmly.
