The aluminum DIN-rail attachment plate should be fixed to the back panel of the AWK-3191 when you take it out of the box. If you need to reattach the DIN-rail attachment plate to the AWK-3191, make sure the stiff metal...
STEP 2: Mounting the AWK-3191 to a wall requires 4 screws. Use the AWK-3191 device, with wall mount plates attached as a guide, to mark the correct locations of the 4 screws. The heads of the screws should be less than 6.0 mm in diameter, and the shafts should be less...
WARNING Safety First! Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your Moxa AWK-3191. Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical codes dictating the maximum current allowed for each wire size. If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.
Grounding the Moxa AWK-3191 Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs The top two pairs of contacts of the 10-contact terminal block connector on the AWK-3191’s top panel are used for the AWK-3191’s two DC inputs. Top and front views of the terminal block connector are shown here.
Cable Holder Installation (Optional) Attach the cable holder to the bottom of the AWK-3191 to help keep cables neat and avoid accidents that result from untidy cables. STEP 1: Screw the cable holder onto the bottom of the AWK-3191. STEP 2: After mounting the AWK-3191 and plugging in the LAN cable, tighten the cable along the device and wall.
