Mount the Repeater Module

To mount the module on the DIN rail:

1. Position the module on the 35×7.5mm DIN rail (Allen-Bradley part number

199-DRI; 46277-3; EN 50022) at a 30° angle.

2. Hook the module lip (on the rear of the module) onto the top of the DIN rail and

rotate the module onto the rail.

3. Press the module down to the DIN rail until the module is flush with the rail.

The locking tab should snap into position and lock the module onto the DIN rail. If
the tab does not snap into position, follow step 4. If the tab does snap into position,
go to step 5.

ATTENTION

This product is grounded through the DIN rail to chassis ground.
Use zinc plated yellow-chromate steel DIN rail to assure proper
grounding. The use of other DIN rail materials (e.g., aluminum,
plastic, etc.) that can corrode, oxidize, or are poor conductors, can
result in improper or intermittent grounding.

IMPORTANT

To ensure proper operation of the 1786-RPCD repeater module, you
must position the 1786-RPCD module to the left of any 1786-RPFRL or
1786-RPFRXL repeater modules in your configuration.
