MicroSD card to insert or remove from card carrier. Insert
card label-side up, until spring catch latches. If properly
inserted, the card is behind the shutter track.
Data on the microSD card is encrypted by a special
"system password" stored in the EC-BOS-8 UUKL base. If
swapping in a card from a previously configured unit,
you must re-enter this same password, using a serial
connection to the unit's Debug port.

Mounting
Mount the EC-BOS-8 UUKL in a location that allows clearance for wiring,
servicing, and module removal.
Environmental Requirements
This product is for indoor use only, altitude to 2,000m
(6,562 ft.).
Ambient conditions must be within the range of:
•
Operating Temperature: 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F). Storage
Temperature: -40°C to 85°C (-40°F to 185°F).
•
Relative humidity: 5% to 93% non-condensing. Pollution Degree 3
•
Supply (mains) voltage requirements are as follows:
-
Allowable voltage fluctuation +/- 10%,
For a unit mounted inside an enclosure, ensure that the enclosure is
designed to keep the unit within its required operating temperature range
Prerequisite: All power to the EC-BOS-8 UUKL must be removed (see
previous Caution). If the unit is currently running, see
BOS-8 UUKL
Shutdown," on page 7.
Note the EC-BOS-8 UUKL must also be unmounted from any DIN rail or
screw tab mounting, as accessing the card uses space behind the
mounting base. See Figure 3.
1. Carefully slide the plastic microSD card shutter open. The shutter
should remain captive in the base, revealing the microSD card
socket.
2. To insert the microSD card, slide it into card carrier, label side up,
until the spring catch engages. If properly inserted, the card is
behind the shutter track.
3. To remove the microSD card, push it in, until the spring release
pushes it partially out of the card carrier. Grasp the card, pull it
completely out of the unit and store it in a static free protective case.
4. Carefully slide the card shutter back over the card carrier opening,
until it clicks in place. When properly closed, the shutter should not
protrude behind the mounting base.
Data on the microSD card is encrypted. If you swap in a card
from a previously configured unit, you must change the EC-
BOS-8 UUKL system passphrase on the platform to match
the passphrase on the new microSD card. See EC-BOS-8
UUKL EC-Net 4 Install and Startup Guide for details.
(considering a 24-watt dissipation by the EC-BOS-8 UUKL). This is
important if the EC-BOS-8 UUKL is mounted inside an enclosure with
other heat-producing equipment.
Do not mount the unit:
-
in an area with excessive moisture, corrosive fumes, or explosive
vapors.
-
where vibration or shock is likely to occur.
-
in a location subject to electrical noise, such as in the proximity of
large electrical contactors, electrical machinery, welding equipment,
and so on.
Physical Mounting
The following applies about physically mounting the unit.
•
Horizontal mounting (as shown) is strongly recommended, to
achieve maximum heat dissipation and meet the operating
temperature upper limit. Any other mounting orientation reduces this
upper limit.
