Installing the CV

Installing the Controller on a DIN Rail
The controller unit and the expansion
unit are designed to be mounted on a
DIN rail.
Pull out the tab on the bottom in the
direction of the arrow to mount or
dismount the controller.

Installing the Controller at the Bottom

Mount the controller in a stable location
that is free from vibration.

Connecting the Camera Cables

Connect the camera to the camera connector of the controller unit
using one of the optional camera cables.
If connecting only a single camera, attach it to the camera 1 connector.

• Bundle cables with a spiral tubing material. Direct bundling will concentrate the

cable load on the bindings, which can result in cable damage or short circuit.

• In the absence of other specifications, the minimum cable flexibility (R)

should be 3 times the external diameter (5 times is recommended).
Additionally, repeated curvature and screw stress should be avoided. The
minimum flexion is the same, even when using flexible cable. Unless
otherwise stated, use R100 or greater.

• Camera cable CA-CN17, CA-CN17L, and CA-CN17R can only be

connected to the XG-035C and XG-035M.

• For the High Speed Camera or the Line Scan Camera (CA-H**** and

XG-H****), only the CA-CH* Camera Cable can be connected.

• If a different camera is connected, it may cause improper functioning, do not

connect to a different camera.

Using the repeater for camera cable extension
The camera cable can be extended by using the extension repeater
for the camera cable.
