Mounting the Backplane on a Panel
The horizontal panel-mount kit has mounting holes on the sides of the
backplane and is NI part number 778616-01. The vertical panel-mount kit
has mounting holes on the top and bottom of the backplane and is NI part
number 778688-01. Complete the following steps to mount the system on
a flat surface.
1. Fasten the panel-mount plates to the back of the cFP-BP-x using a
number 2 Phillips screwdriver and the 8-32 × 5/16 in. countersink
screws shipped with the kit. You must use these screws because they
are the correct depth and thread for the plates and backplane.
