(1.5 in.) profile they take up less space,
or little more space, than the thickness of
the desktop.

This panel can be run from mains AC
power or optionally from DC power. This
can be useful for systems where space is
a premium.

— Easy mounting in a desk
— Leaves plenty of ventilation space
behind the panel in a rack
• Menu mode for local reprogramming:
— Local configuration and operating
modes can be changed from the
panel itself
— Suitable for use in changing
environments
— Removes the need for access to
central configuration system
