TruPortal Input Expansion Board Quick Reference
Mounting the Enclosure
A TP-ADD-IO-BRD assembly can be installed into either a
TruPortal System Controller enclosure, or a TP-ADD-IO or
TP-ADD-IO-E enclosure.
To install an TP-ADD-IO-BRD assembly into a TP-ADD-IO or
TP-ADD-IO-E enclosure:
1.
Remove enclosure from shipping container and remove any
packing material.
2.
Using the template provided (part number 531119001 or
531120001), mark and then drill mounting holes.
3.
To mount on dry wall, use 1/8 in. (3.175 mm) hollow wall,
expansion anchors. Unscrew the screws from the anchors.
Mark the mounting holes. Force a starter hole in each mark
with a sharp tool. Hammer the anchors into each hole. Align
the box mounting holes over the anchor holes and screw in
the anchors until tight.
To mount on a concrete surface, hold the enclosure on the
mounting surface. Mark the mounting holes. Use a hammer
drill with a 3/16 in. (4.76 mm) carb alloy drill bit and make 1-
in. (25.4 mm) deep holes in each marking. Insert a # 6-8
plastic anchor in each hole and hammer them in. Use # 8 X 1
in.(25.4 mm), Phillips, wood screws to screw into the plastic
anchors and mount the enclosure.
4.
The enclosure includes standard cable knockouts on each
side, including the back. Use the proper size and type of
cable strain reliefs to secure cables to the enclosure.

Mounting the Module in the Enclosure
One TP-ADD-IN-BRD paired with exactly one TP-ADD-OUT-BRD
can be installed inside the TruPortal System Controller enclosure.
The universal mounting plate is not required in this case.
To install a TP-ADD-IO-BRD assembly into a TP-ADD-IO or
TP-ADD-IO-E enclosure, determine the series of eight standoffs
for mounting the module. Insert the module and mounting plate
assembly, attaching it with the eight nuts provided.
Note:
Do not overtighten the mounting screws.
