4 Installation
4.1
Unpacking
The XDi indicator is delivered in a cardboard box. To protect the indicator, it is important to store it in the box until it
is being mounted in the panel.
This will also eliminate the risk of dust, or even worse, metal parts, to enter the cabinet through the airgaps in the
rear part of the XDi that may sooner or later damage the unit.
4.1.1
ESD
The indicator is protected against ESD (static electricity). Therefore, no special attention to ESD is needed during
the mounting and wiring of the indicator.

Panel mounting of XDi
XDi is mounted from the front where the mounting screws are located beneath the front frame. The special
mounting clamps make installation easy.
XDi can be mounted in any angle from horizontal to vertical. It is important that there is space in the cabinet for
sufficient airflow around the XDi and that the operating temperature of the unit is not exceeded. Especially when
mounted in top of a horizontal panel, the temperature inside the console may be higher than expected, in which
case forced air circulation inside the console is recommended.
Overheating will reduce the expected lifetime of the unit.

Some XDi variant includes an extension module as standard and XDi can also be ordered with one or
two extension modules as option. Each extension module is in a small white cardboard box and
packed in the larger cardboard box containing the XDi unit.
Please note that the module must be mounted in the right extension slot on the XDi after unpacking.
