Mounting on a DIN-rail before installing the terminal base units
1 Position the Modbus adapter module A on a 35 X 7.5mm DIN-rail B
(Rockwell Automation pt. no. 199-DR1: 46277-3; EN 50022) at a slight angle.
2 Hook the lip on the rear of the adapter (A) onto the top of the DIN-rail (B),
and rotate the adapter module onto the rail.
3 Press the adapter module down onto the DIN-rail until flush. Locking tab (C)
will snap into position and lock the adapter module to the DIN-rail.
4 If the adapter module does not lock in place, use a screwdriver or similar
device to move the locking tab down while pressing the adapter module flush
onto the DIN-rail and release the locking tab to lock the adapter module in
place. If necessary, push up on the locking tab to lock.
5 Connect the adapter wiring as shown under "Wiring" later in this document.
