2.2 Installation 2.2.1 Inter-module Installation Inter-module assemblies are slide-mounted via the top and bottom rails. 2.2.2 Rail Installation DIN rail mounting is adopted here. When installing, align the module with the DIN rail and press the snap until there is a clear click sound. As shown in the figure below. Note: Push the rail snaps first to open state, place the module onto the DIN rail, press down the top of the snaps with your hand until it is in place.
