Installation

This chapter provides specific procedures for installing the Magnum DX40, preparing for
installation, and uninstalling the device.

2.1 Preparing for Installation

The DX40 is designed to be installed on a DIN rail system or on a panel.
2.1.1 Tools
Regardless of which mounting system you are using, the only tools you will need are
screwdrivers: a small slotted screwdriver for the power connector and a medium slotted
screwdriver for wall mounting and the grounding screw. (The 6-32 pan head grounding
screw will accept both phillips head and slotted screwdrivers.)
The instructions in this manual cover only the physical installation. System configuration
is handled through a web-based interface and is described in the Magnum Network
Software – DX Administrator’s Guide.
2.1.2 Site Suitability
Be sure that your installation site meets the following criteria:
•Conforms with the temperature and humidity ranges detailed in Tabl e 1-2.
•Can meet the power requirements detailed in Tabl e 1-5.
•Will remain stable after the addition of the 3.5 lb. DX40.
•Permits at least two inches of space between the DX40 and any other heat-
producing device.
