Notice!
When installing the units, load the cabinet so as not to make it top-heavy. One approach is to
place the controller-unit in the middle portion of the cabinet while allowing room for
expansion units to be placed above and below the controller unit.

Bosch Sicherheitssysteme GmbH
You can install the unit in either a square-hole or round-hole rack.
If you are installing the unit in a cabinet not provided by Bosch, you must calculate the
thermal output of your equipment and compare the results with the target system
cabinet's thermal rating. You might need to remove the system cabinet doors to improve
airflow through the system cabinet.
For thermal rating information refer to the rack or system cabinet manuals provided by
the manufacturer.
You must use only the screws that are provided in the kit.
Determine where you want to install the unit in the rack or system cabinet.
Note: Whenever possible, install the units from the bottom of the rack up, so that you can
use the units underneath as a guide for installing the next set of rails.
Attach the rails to the rack or system cabinet as follows:
– Place the rail inside the rack or system cabinet where you want to install the unit.
Align the alignment screws on the rail with the holes on the front post of the rack.
– If you have a round-hole rack, remove the eight preinstalled square-hole rack
alignment screws and install the eight round-hole rack alignment screws.
Note: Ensure that you use the screws that are appropriate for your rack.
– Extend the rail to the back post of the rack or system cabinet until the flanges on the
rail touch the inside of the rack or system cabinet.
– Insert one M5 screw through the hole in the front of the rack or system cabinet, and
two M5 screws through the holes at the back of the rack or system cabinet.
– Repeat these steps for the other rail.
Place the back of the unit (the end with the connectors) on the rails.
