Commissioning Installation in the control cabinet The C6027 Industrial PC is designed for installation in control cabinets in machine and plant technology. Please observe the environmental conditions prescribed for the operation (see Chapter 9 Technical data [} 42]). Using different mounting plates, you can align the cable entry based on the application requirements.
In the case of mounting plate 2, there are two different mounting options for the device. Fig. 13 shows the possible mounting options: • Connections point to the right (A) • Connections point to the left (B) Fig. 13: C6027 _Mounting options for mounting plate 2 C6027 Version: 1.1...
