The XL7 utilizes a clip installation method to ensure a robust and watertight seal to the
enclosure. Please follow the steps below for the proper installation and operation of the unit.
1.
Carefully locate an appropriate place to mount the XL7. Be sure to leave enough room
at the top of the unit for insertion and removal of the microSD™ card.
2.
Carefully cut the host panel per the diagram, creating a 131.25mm x 193mm with a +/-
0.1mm panel cutout tolerance, opening into which the XL7 may be installed. If the
opening is too large, water may leak into the enclosure, potentially damaging the unit.
If the opening is too small, the OCS may not fit through the hole without damage.
3.
Remove any burrs and or sharp edges and ensure the panel is not warped in the
cutting process.
4.
Remove all Removable Terminals from the XL7. Insert the XL7 through the panel
cutout (from the front). The gasket must be between the host panel and the XL7.
5.
Install and tighten the four mounting clips (provided in the box) until the gasket forms
a tight seal NOTE: Max torque is 0.8 to 1.13Nm, or 7 to 10 in-lbs.
6.
Reinstall the XL7 I/O Removable Terminal Blocks. Connect communications cables to
the serial port, USB ports, Ethernet port, and CAN port as required.
