Node Controller Installation
Locate the node controllers close to the nodes they are responsible for to minimize the length
of all wiring.
Mounting NC-S Node Controllers
Locate the NC-S close to the nodes it is responsible for to minimize the length of all wiring.
The node controller can be oriented in any direction that is required, make sure the service and
exclusion zones that are identified in Figure 4-1 on page 54 are maintained. Typical mounting
methods for the NC-S use either DIN Rail Mounting, Surface Mounting, or Rack Mounting.
DIN Rail Mounting
The NC-S can be mounted to a DIN Rail by attaching the optional DIN rail mounting bracket
as shown in Figure 5-1.

1. Install the DIN mounting bracket onto the node controller with the supplied #6-32
Phillips head screw. Tighten to 1.1 N•m [10 in•lb].
NOTICE
Make sure that all mounting surfaces and mounting hardware provide a con-
ductive path to the transport system ground connection.
