Installing the Control Unit and Modules
Install the control unit’s backplane within five feet (1.5 meters) of a properly grounded AC electrical outlet (not controlled by a switch) and the network interface jacks. In addition, when you mount the backplane on the wall, leave at least six inches (2.34 cm) of clearance at the top and sides, and two feet (0.6 meters) at the front and bottom to ensure proper ventilation.
1 | A) Hold the backplane against the wall. |
| B) Using the four screw keyholes in the backplane |
| as a template, mark screw locations on the |
| wall. |
| C) Start four #12 screws, leaving the screw heads |
| approximately 1/4” away from the wall. |
| D) Slip the backplane onto the screws and tighten |
2 | them. |
A) Slide the processor module into the center slot of | |
| the control |
| the bottom of the slot as you push in the |
| module will make insertion easier. |
| B) Push slowly but firmly until the module locks into |
| place with two snaps, and is attached to the |
| rear of the backplane and held in place by the |
| locking tab. Do not force the module. If it |
| does not insert easily, remove the module, |
3 | clear any obstruction, and reinsert. |
A) Slide the first 206 module into the leftmost slot of | |
| the backplane. (The system will not work if a |
| 206 module is not installed in this slot.) |
B) Going from left to right, install 206 modules first, then any 400 (or 200) modules. The 400 modules should always be to the right of all 206 modules, so the extensions will be numbered consecutively. Hold down the locking tab and align the dovetail guides on the sides of the module with the guides on any previously inserted modules.
