„ Mounting on a DIN rail
1
Fit the tab of the lower part of the main unit
to the DIN rail. While inserting the main unit
in the direction of arrow 1, push the body in
the direction of arrow 2.
2
To detach the main unit, while pushing the
main unit in the direction of arrow 1, pull
the body in the direction of arrow 3.
„ How to connect to the sensor amplifier
The EtherNet/IP Compatible Network Unit DL-EP1 is used by connecting it to a sensor amplifier.
The connection method varies according to the mounting type of the sensor amplifier to connect
to.
z Connecting to a DIN rail mounting type sensor amplifier.
1
Detach the expansion protective cover of the sensor amplifier to which the
communication unit is to be connected.
2
Mount the EtherNet/IP Compatible Network Unit DL-EP1 on the DIN rail and
connect to the sensor amplifier.
Push and fix the EtherNet/IP Compatible Network Unit DL-EP1 to make sure there is no
space between the output unit and the sensor amplifier.
3
Mount the attached end units (OP-26751: a set of two pieces) on both sides of the
sensor amplifier and the EtherNet/IP Compatible Network Unit DL-EP1, then fix
the end units with screws on the upper part of each end unit (2 points x 2 units).
(Tightening torque:0.6 N•m or less)
The mounting method of the end unit is the same as that of the EtherNet/IP Compatible
Network Unit DL-EP1.
z Connecting to a panel mounting type sensor amplifier
1
Connect the sensor amplifier to the EtherNet/IP Compatible Network Unit DL-EP1
using the optional expansion cable (OP-35361).
2
Detach the sensor amplifier connector (for DIN rail mounting type) of the
EtherNet/IP Compatible Network Unit DL-EP1 with pliers and mount the attached
expansion connector sticker.

NOTICE
Point
Sensor amplifier
Expansion protective cover
Refer to the figure below, and check that the sensor amplifier
connector (for DIN rail mounting type) on the side of the
EtherNet/IP Compatible Network Unit DL-EP1 is not mounted at
an angle. Connecting to the sensor amplifier with the connector
diagonally may damage the equipment.
Be sure to insert the EtherNet/IP Compatible Network Unit DL-
EP1 to the sensor amplifier to the end. Turning on the power
with diagonal insertion or improper insertion may damage the
equipment.
• Turn OFF the power before connecting the expansion cable
and connect securely. Diagonal or otherwise improper inser-
tion may damage the equipment.
• Inserting or pulling the cable when the power is turned ON
may damage the equipment.
