unit on the DIN rail meets the recommended spacing
requirements, see Controller Spacing on page 2-12. Refer to the

2. Hook the top slot over the DIN rail.
3. While pressing the base unit down against the top of the rail,
snap the bottom of the base unit into position. Ensure DIN
latches are in the up (secured) position.
4. Leave the protective debris strip attached until you are finished
wiring the base unit and any other devices.
To remove your base unit from the DIN rail:
1. Place a flat-blade screwdriver in the DIN rail latch at the bottom
of the base unit.
2. Holding the base unit, pry downward on the latch until the latch
locks in the open position. Repeat this procedure with the
second latch. This releases the base unit from the DIN rail.
