2.2 Mounting the MVI 94 Flex I/O Base
1 Remove the cover plug (if used) in the male connector of the unit to which
you are connecting this Base.
2 Check to make sure that the 16 pins in the male connector on the adjacent
device are straight and in line so that the mating female connector on this
Base will mate correctly.
3 Make certain that the female flexbus connector C is fully retracted into the
Base.
4 Position the Base on a 35 x 7.5mm DIN-rail A at a slight angle with the hook
B on the left side of the Base hooked into the right side of the unit on the left.
5 Rotate the Base onto the DIN-rail with the top of the rail hooked under the lip
on the rear of the Base. Use caution to make sure that the female flexbus
connector does not strike any of the pins in the mating male connector.
6 Press the terminal base down onto the DIN-rail until flush. The locking tab D
snaps into position and locks the terminal base to the DIN-rail.
7 If the Base does not lock in place, use a screwdriver or similar device to
move the locking tab down, press the Base flush with the DIN-rail and release
the locking tab to lock the base in place.
8 Gently push the female flexbus C connector into the adjacent base or
adapter male connector to complete the flexbus connections.
