System Build
The AADvance controller is supplied as an 'open' type equipment, prepared
for installation on a wall or panel or inside a cabinet. This chapter gives an
overview of a system construction to demonstrate how easy and simple the
process can be; refer to the AADvance System Build Manual for more detailed
information about constructing a system.
Controller Mounting
An AADvance controller and I/O bases can be mounted using one of two
methods:
• A pair of parallel TS35 DIN rails.
• Panel mounted using three holes on each base.
Free Space around the
Controller
Whichever mounting method is used the minimum depth from the rear
mounting panel to the front panel and space around the base units are shown
in the illustration, if you wish to mount the controller on DIN rails, increase
this allowance by the increased depth of the DIN rails. The DIN rails must be
TS35 rail, which is a 35mm × 7.5mm standard symmetric rail.
You must have sufficient free space around the base units to allow for the
following:
• Space above, to adjust and install field wiring.
• Space below, to let modules fit and to be able to hold a module during
removal.
• Space to the right of the last base unit in the row, to move an I/O base
unit during assembly or if you are installing a new base unit.
If an expansion cable is to connect to the left-most base unit, the controller also
needs space to the left, to fit the expansion cable adapter.
