Installing on a Table
The unit ships ready to use in a tabletop environment. This includes four rubber feet on
the bottom of the unit. At a later time, if you want to move the unit to a DIN rail or a wall
installation, you can remove the rubber feet. Grasp the bottom of each foot and gently pull it
down and out of the hole.
Installing on a DIN Rail
Equinox offers an Industrial Mounting Kit, part number 790226, containing hardware and
instructions for mounting an ESP-2 MI on a DIN rail.
Installing on a Wall
The ESP-2 MI unit contains two sets of mounting flanges for flexibility in mounting options
on a wall or other vertical surface. You will need to provide the appropriate number of
screws and washers.
•
You may install the unit with the bottom (that is, the side containing the large label)
against the wall, using the four fl anges on the bottom of the unit.
The unit ships with rubber feet installed in these fl anges for tabletop installation. Remove
them by grasping the bottom of each foot and gently pulling it down and out of the hole.
Then, use your screws and washers to attach the unit to the wall.
•
You may install the unit with the back against the wall, using the two fl anges on the back
of the unit. In this case, you can remove the four rubber feet on the bottom of the unit or
leave them installed. Use your screws and washers to attach the unit to the wall.
With either of the above installations, you may orient the unit to best fit your configuration.
