1. MOUNTING

1.4Control Unit

The control unit may be mounted on a tabletop, with or without the KB fixing metal (supplied), which mounts the control unit at an angle.

Mounting considerations

When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points:

Select a location where the control unit can be operated conveniently.

Locate the unit away from heat sources because of heat that can build up inside the cabinet.

Locate the equipment away from places subject to water splash and rain.

Determine the mounting location considering the length of the signal cable between the control unit and the processor unit. (The signal cable comes in lengths of 10 m).

A magnetic compass will be affected if the control unit is placed too close to the magnetic compass. Observe the compass safe distances on page ii to prevent deviation of a magnetic compass.

Fixing with KB fixing plate

1.Fix the KB fixing plate to the bottom of the control unit.

2.Attach cushions (three for RCU-014, two for RCU-015/016) to the bottom of the control unit as shown below.

3.Fix it to a desired location with self-tapping screws (local supply).
