  • Page 24: Installing The Modbus Router

    Installing the Modbus Router 2.3.1 DIN Rail Mounting The DIN rail mount option is the quickest installation option. Additionally, it optimizes the use of rail space. The metal DIN rail kit is secured to the rear of the modbus router. The device can be mounted onto a standard 35 mm (1.37”) x 7.5 mm (0.3”) height DIN rail.
  • Page 25: Figure 2.2 Correctly Installed Din Rail Kit

    See the following figure for an illustration of a completed DIN installation procedure. Figure 2.2 Correctly Installed DIN Rail Kit Grasp the bottom of the modbus router and slightly rotate it upwards. If there is resistance, the modbus router is correctly installed. Otherwise, re-attempt the installation process from the beginning.
  • Page 26: Wall-Mounting

    2.3.2 Wall-Mounting The wall mounting option provides better shock and vibration resistance than the DIN rail vertical mount. Note! When installing, make sure to allow for enough space to properly install the cabling. Before the device can be mounted on a wall, you will need to remove the DIN rail plate.
  • Page 27: Figure 2.5 Wall Mounting Screw Dimensions

    Once the wall mounting plates are secure on the device, you will need to attach the wall screws (x4). Locate the installation site and place the modbus router against the wall, making sure it is the final installation location. Use the wall mount plates as a guide to mark the locations of the screw holes. Drill four holes over the four marked locations on the wall, keeping in mind that the holes must accommodate wall sinks in addition to the screws.
  • Page 28: Connecting The Modbus Router To Ethernet Ports

    Connecting the Modbus Router to Ethernet Ports 2.4.1 RJ45 Ethernet Cable Wiring For RJ45 connectors, data-quality, twisted pair cabling (rated CAT5 or better) is recommended. The connector bodies on the RJ45 Ethernet ports are metallic and connected to the GND terminal. For best performance, use shielded cabling. Shielded cabling may be used to provide further protection.
  • Page 29: Power Supply Installation

    Power Supply Installation 2.6.1 Overview Warning! Power down and disconnect the power cord before servicing or wiring the modbus router. Caution! Do not disconnect modules or cabling unless the power is first switched off. The device only supports the voltage outlined in the type plate. Do not use any other power components except those specifically designated for the modbus router device.
