Mounting the Controller Chassis
The following mounting options are available for the SmartController:

• Stack
Brackets for panel-mounting the SmartController are supplied with the system. Brackets
for rack- and table-mounting are available as options. See Chapter 2 in the
Adept
SmartController User’s Guide . In addition, a SmartController, an sDIO module, and an
sMI6 module can be stack mounted (one unit placed on top of another). These brackets are
supplied with compatible Adept units.
Connect 24 VDC Power and Ground to the SmartController
See Chapter 2 in the Adept SmartController User’s Guide for specifications on the
user-supplied 24 VDC power source.
NOTE: Attach the shield from the user-supplied 24 VDC cable to the
right-hand side of the controller using a star washer and M3 x 6 mm
screw. Select the threaded hole on the side of the controller that is closest
to the 24 VDC connector (XDC1/XDC2). See
Figure 7-1 on page 118 .
At the user-supplied 24 VDC power supply, attach the shield of the
power cable to the frame ground of the power supply.
