Installation and Connections

Section 2: Installation and Connections

Installation consists of mounting the X-16s and connecting it to an X-600M controller with a 10-conductor
ribbon cable. Programming and testing is done by using a web browser to configure the web pages,
inputs, and outputs for your specific needs.
2.1 Installation Guidelines
•
This unit must be installed by qualified personnel.
• This unit must not be installed in unprotected outdoor locations.
• This unit must not be used for medical, life saving purposes, or for any purpose where its failure
could cause serious injury or the loss of life.
• This unit must not be used in any way where its function or failure could cause significant loss or
property damage.
2.2 Mounting
X-16s can be mounted to a standard (35mm by 7.55mm) DIN-Rail. Normally expansion modules are
mounted to the left side (embossed logo side of the enclosure) of the X-600M controller so that the
ribbon cable doesn't cover the power connector. The X-16s should be located in a clean, dry location
where it is protected from the elements. Ventilation is recommend for installations where high ambient
air temperatures are expected to be high. See Appendix D: Mechanical Information for additional
mechanical details.

2.2.1 DIN-Rail Mounting

Attach the X-16s to the DIN-Rail by hooking the top hook on the back of the enclosure to the DIN-Rail
and then snap the bottom hook into place. To remove the X-16s from the DIN-Rail, use a flat-head
screwdriver. Insert the screw driver into the notch in the release tab and pry against the enclosure to
release the bottom hook.
