1-3: Mounting
LMV5 Controller
The LMV5 must be mounted inside an enclosure that will protect it from dirt and moisture. The
unit is mounted by four screws (M5 x 0.8mm thread, #2 Phillips drive) that are captive in each
corner. The panel, which the unit sits on, should be drilled and tapped to accommodate these
screws. Alternatively, two mounting brackets are available that use clearance holes to mount
the LMV5 into the panel and space the LMV5 approximate 1.25" off the back of the panel.
It should be noted that the mounting screws do not have excessive play, so the spacing of the
mounting holes must be accurate. This can be achieved by clamping or securing the LMV5 in
the desired position. Then use the captive screws to score (4) circles into the panel. Do this by
turning each of the mounting screws clockwise while applying pressure to the screwdriver.
During the mounting process, consideration should also be given to the various plugs and wires
that must be attached to the LMV5. Electrical connections are made via plugs that are located
in the face, top and bottom of the unit. A space of at least (2) inches is recommended above
and below the LMV5. The recommended total space to leave for the LMV5 is 12" x 12" x 4"
because the overall dimensions of the LMV5 are 9.84" x 7.87" x 3.25".
