Lock the end cap bus terminator (6).

Mounting

Minimum Spacing

Maintain spacing from enclosure walls, wireways, adjacent equipment, and so
forth. Allow 50 mm (2 in.) of space on all sides for adequate ventilation, as shown
below.

Panel Mounting

Mount the module to a panel by using two screws per module. Use M4 or #8
panhead screws. Mounting screws are required on every module.

IMPORTANT

A 1769-ECR or 1769-ECL right or left end cap respectively must be
used to terminate the end of the bus.

ATTENTION: During panel or DIN rail mounting of all devices, be sure
that all debris (metal chips, wire strands) is kept from falling into the
module. Debris that falls into the module could cause damage at
powerup.
