Chapter 4 Install the Module
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
Mount the Module
To mount the module, you must install the mounting base, connect the module
to the mounting base, and then connect the removable terminal block.
Install the Mounting Base
The mounting base assembly (catalog number 1734-TB or 1734-TBS) consists of
a mounting base and a removable terminal block. Alternatively, you can use the
POINT I/O one-piece mounting base (catalog number 1734-TOP, 1734-TOPS,
1734-TOP3, or 1734-TOP3S).
ATTENTION: This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can
cause internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines
when you handle this equipment:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
• Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
• Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not in use.
IMPORTANT Follow these guidelines when installing a module:
• Use the module in an environment that is within the general specifications.
• Use the module in an enclosure rated at IP54 (IEC60529) or higher.
• Use DIN rail that is 35 mm (1.38 in.) wide to mount the terminal base in the
control panel.
• Place other heat sources an appropriate distance away from the module to
maintain ambient temperatures around the module below specified
maximums.
• You can mount your module horizontally or vertically.
IMPORTANT You need two mounting base assemblies for each POINT Guard I/O module. Do
not use 1734-TB3 or 1734-TB3S mounting base assemblies.
