Motion Coordinator Technical Reference Manual
Installation 3-7
Motion Coordinator MC216
Bulkhead Mounting
The module may be bulkhead mounted by securing in two locations through the
rear panel of the unit with M4 screws. The unit should be mounted vertically and
should not be subjected to mechanical loading. Care should be taken to ensure
that there is a free flow of air vertically through the unit.
Module Interconnection
Modules to be connected should be mounted on 70mm centres at the same
height. The MC216 should be at the right hand end. After mounting on the bulk-
head the interconnection bus cover may be removed by unscrewing the 2 secur-
ing screws. The appropriate length of ribbon cable will be supplied ready
assembled and tested by TRIO. With the power off the ribbon cable can be
inserted and the cable locked with the ears on each connector. The power may
then be re-applied and all the interconnection bus covers replaced
Note:
Modules must never be connected or disconnected whilst the power supply is
on.
Environmental Considerations
Ensure that the area around the ventilation holes and top of the module are kept
clear. Avoid violent shocks to, or vibration of, the system modules whilst in use or
storage.
