Mount on DIN Rail
 
To install your controller on the DIN rail, do as follows:
1. Mount your DIN rail. (Make sure that the placement of the controller on 
the DIN rail meets the recommended spacing requirements, see 
Controller and Expansion I/O Spacing
 on page 27. See the mounting 
template inside the back cover of this document.)
2. Close the DIN latch, if it is open.
3. Hook the top slot over the DIN rail.
4. While pressing the controller down against the top of the rail, snap the 
bottom of the controller into position.
5. Leave the protective debris shield attached until you are finished wiring 
the controller and any other devices.
To remove your controller from the DIN rail:
1. Place a flat-blade screwdriver in the DIN rail latch at the bottom of the 
controller.
2. Holding the controller, pry downward on the latch until the latch locks in 
the open position. 
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the second DIN rail latch.
4. Unhook the top of the DIN rail slot from the rail.
