DIN Rail Mount Applications
DIN rail mounting is the preferred mounting method.
To mount an FEC on 35 mm DIN rail:
1. Securely mount a 20 cm (8 in.) or longer section of
35 mm DIN rail horizontal and centered in the
desired space so that the controller mounts in the
horizontal position shown in Figure 1.
2. Pull the two bottom mounting clips outward to the
extended position (Figure 2).
3. Hang the controller on the DIN rail by the hooks at
the top of the (DIN rail) channel on the back of the
controller (Figure 2), and position the controller
snugly against the DIN rail.
4. Push the bottom mounting clips inward to secure
the controller on the DIN rail.
To remove the FEC from the DIN rail, pull the bottom
mounting clips out to the extended position and
carefully lift the controller off the DIN rail.

Wall Mount Applications
To mount an FEC directly on a wall (or other flat vertical
surface):
1. Pull the two bottom mounting clips outward and
ensure they are locked in the extended positions
as shown in Figure 2.
2. Mark the three mounting hole locations on the wall
using the dimensions in Figure 2 and one of the
mount positions shown in Figure 1 (or hold the
controller up to the wall/surface in a proper mount
position and mark the hole locations through the
mounting clips.)
3. Drill holes in the wall at the locations marked in
Step 2, and insert appropriate wall anchors in all
three holes (if necessary).
4. Hold the FEC in place, and insert the screws
through the mounting clips and into the holes.
Carefully tighten all of the screws.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten the mounting
screws. Overtightening the screws may damage the
mounting clips.
