Follow these instructions to properly install and connect the FX16.
!
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock. Disconnect power supply before
making electrical connections. Contact with components carrying hazardous
voltage can cause electric shock and may result in severe personal injury or
death.
Mounting the FX16 Controller
To mount the FX16 controller:
1. Snap the controller onto the 35 mm (1.38 in.) rail for DIN rail
mounting.
To release the controller, insert a screwdriver in Slot B and lift the
retaining clip. Since the retaining clip is spring-loaded, you can also
remove the controller without a screwdriver by carefully pushing the
controller up against the clip and then tilting the top forward to
release the top lugs from the DIN rail.
2. Make wiring terminations with detachable connectors.
The detachable connectors accept 1 x 1.5 mm
2
(0.002 in.
2
)/14 AWG
cable. Two types of connector are available: screw connectors
shipped with the controller and cage clamp connectors ordered
separately.
Terminations to the Supervisor Link, Local Link Bus, and Remote
Display are made via the connectors provided with the controller.
3. Verify that the wiring has been correctly installed and that voltage
levels are appropriate for the various input signals according to the
application.
4. Set the jumpers and address switches of the controller. For more
information, see Jumper Details.
IMPORTANT: The Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS)
circuits in the controller are sensitive to static electricity. Take suitable
precautions.
