Install FLEX 5000 I/O modules on the right side of the adapter.
If the end cap is installed on the adapter, you must remove it before you can install the I/O modules.
For more information on how to install FLEX 5000 I/O modules, see the installation instructions available with each FLEX 5000 I/O module
catalog number.
Install the End Cap
An end cap is shipped with the adapter.
You must install an end cap on the right side of the last installed terminal base. The end cap covers the exposed interconnections on the adapter or
on the last installed terminal base. If you do not install the end cap before powering the adapter, equipment damage or injury from electric shock
can result.
1. Make sure that the end cap is unlocked.
If the end cap is locked, pull the tab until it clicks.
2. Align the end cap with interlocking pieces on the last installed terminal base.
3. Push the end cap towards the DIN rail
4. Press the Locking tab until it clicks.
Install End Anchors onto the DIN Rail
Use DIN rail end anchors (Allen-Bradley part number 1492-EAJ35 or 1492-EAHJ35) for vibration or shock environments. You must install an
end anchor to the left of the adapter and to the right of the last installed terminal base to hold the modules firmly in position on the DIN rail.
1. Make sure that the end cap is installed on the last installed terminal base.
2. Slide an end anchor along the left-side of the DIN rail until it touches the adapter.
3. Slide an end anchor along the right-side of the DIN rail until it touches the end cap on the last installed terminal base.
4. Tighten the screw of each end anchor.
