Figure 5 Rack Ear Hinges
Installing the Bottom Module in the Rack
Note: Consider using the following method to determine where to install
the nut clips (or cage nuts), rather than adding the module to the
rack first. If you add the module to the rack first, installing the nut
clips (or cage nuts) can be difficult, because rack space has become
restricted.
4 Install the nut clips (or cage nuts) to the desired location in the rack.
Installing nut clips:
a Hold the nut clip so that its semi-circle design faces outside the rack.
b Push the nut clip onto the rack's mounting holes so that the nut is
behind the rack's holes. (After the nut clip is installed, you can slide it up
and down the mounting holes, if necessary.)
Installing cage nuts:
a Hold the cage nut so that its hinges face outside the rack, and so that its
hinges clasp the upper and lower portions of the square hole.
b Place the cage nut in the desired hole. Insert one hinge in the hole first,
then pinch the cage nut and push it into the hole until it snaps into
place. (You may want to use a screwdriver to help push the hinge into
the hole.)
5 Install the right rack ear (see
a Open the I/O station door. At the lower right corner of the module is a
vertical slot. Insert the hinge of the right rack ear into the slot, and then
position the holes of the rack ear flush with the rack rail.

b Using two M5 thumbscrews, fasten the rack ear to the rack. The
thumbscrews should thread through the nut clips (or cage nuts) and
fasten completely and evenly (see
