FLEX I/O DeviceNet Adapter Module
Installing Your DeviceNet Adapter Module
Mounting on a DIN rail before installing the terminal base Units
1. Position the DeviceNet adapter module (A) on an IEC standard, (35 x
7.5 x 1 mm) top-hat DIN rail (B), at a slight angle.
2. Hook the lip on the rear of the adapter onto the top of the DIN rail, and
rotate the adapter onto the rail.
3. Press the adapter module down onto the DIN rail until flush. Locking
tab C will snap into position and lock the adapter to the DIN rail.
4. If the adapter does not lock in place, use a screwdriver or similar device
to move the locking tab down while pressing the adapter flush onto the
DIN rail, and release the locking tab to lock the adapter in place. If
necessary, push up on the locking tab to lock.
5. Connect the adapter wiring as shown under “Connecting Wiring” later
in this document.

ATTENTION: During mounting of all devices, be sure that all debris (metal chips,
wire strands, etc.) is kept from falling into the module. Debris that falls into the
module could cause damage on power up.
