Mounting
Installation to a DIN rail
1. Attach the railing on the rear of the ampli-
fier to the DIN rail.
2. Push the amplifier in the direction of the
arrow as illustrated so that it attaches
securely.
Removal from a DIN rail
1. Push the amplifier forward.
2. Lift the front part of the amplifier up.
Connecting the fiber cable
● Mount the fiber cables when the power is off.
● The attachments to the fiber cables need to be fitted BEFORE you
insert the fibers into the amplifier. For details, refer to the instruction
manual enclosed with the fibers.
● Insert the fiber cables slowly into the inlets until they stops. Excessive
force may damage the product
1. Snap the fiber lock lever 1 down as
far as it will go.
2. Insert the fiber cables slowly into the
inlets until they stop (see note).
3. Return the fiber lock lever to the
original position.
Note:
With the coaxial reflective type fiber, insert the single core fiber cable into
the inlet for the emitter 2 (inlet on the amplifier is labeled "P") and the
multi-core fiber cable into the inlet for the receiver 3. If they are inserted
the wrong way round, the sensing performance will deteriorate.
