Mount Module to Panel

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

Mount Module to Panel Using the Dimensional Template

Locate holes every 17.5 mm (0.689 in.) to allow for a mix of single-wide and
one-and-a-half-wide modules (for example, the 1769-OA16 module).

Mount Module to Panel Procedure Using Modules as a Template

This procedure lets you use the assembled modules as a template for drilling holes
in the panel. Due to module-mounting hole tolerance, it is important to follow this
procedure.

Refer to Mount Module to Panel Using the Dimensional Template on page 9 if you
have sophisticated panel-mounting equipment.

1. On a clean work surface, assemble no more than three modules.

2. Using the assembled modules as a template, carefully mark the center of all

module-mounting holes on the panel.

3. Return the assembled modules to the clean work surface, including any

previously mounted modules.

4. Drill and tap the mounting holes for the recommended M4 or #8 screws.

5. Place the modules back on the panel, and check for proper hole alignment.

Spacing for Single-wide Modules 35 mm (1.378 in.)

Spacing for One-and-a half-wide Modules 52.5 mm (2.067 in.)
