  • Page 14: Attaching The System Interface To The Cx20X0 System

    Mounting and wiring Attaching the system interface to the CX20x0 system The USB extension is positioned directly between the CPU and the power supply unit. When the module is connected to the CPU it engages audibly. Further modules can be connected to the system in the same way. Please note that some modules are connected on the left-hand side of the CPU.
  • Page 15 Mounting and wiring NOTE Avoid damage! Do not force the module or apply excessive pressure! Installation position NOTE Comply with the permitted installation position and minimum distances! The maximum ambient temperature for CPU modules mounted on a DIN rail is 60°C. The orientation in which the device is fitted must be selected in such a way that cooling air can flow vertically through the ven- tilation holes.
  • Page 16 Mounting and wiring Incorrect installation positions The CX20x0 system must not be operated vertically on the DIN rail. A vertical position would lead to insufficient CPU ventilation, since the ventilation openings are located on the top and bottom of the housing. Installation of the system on its side would also lead to inadequate ventilation.
  • Page 17: Mounting The Module Lock

    Mounting and wiring Mounting the module lock Mounting the lock The CX20x0 controller system is fully modular, i.e. all system interfaces of the system are field-configurable. As a rule the latching of the modules to each other is sufficiently strong. However, it is possible for the controller and its modules to be exposed to vibrations, shocks or impacts.

    Commissioning / Configuration Commissioning / Configuration Switching on and off Switching on The power supply for the basic CPU module comes from the power supply unit. The basic CPU module starts automatically when the power supply unit is connected to the mains. Switching on for the first time When you switch on the PC for the first time, the pre-installed operating system (optional) will be started.
