Install the Terminal
Before installing the terminal in a panel, review minimum clearances, panel guidelines, panel cutout
dimensions, and product dimensions.
Minimum Spacing
Plan for adequate space around the terminal, inside the enclosure, for ventilation and cabling. Consider heat
produced by other devices in the enclosure. The ambient temperature around the terminal must be 0…50 °C
(32… 122 °F).
Mounting Angle
You can mount the terminal vertically against the panel, or tilted forward or backwards, up to a 45° angle. For
mounting angles greater than 45°, the operating temperature is restricted to 40 °C (104 °F).
Panel Guidelines
Supporting panels must be at least 16 gauge to provide proper sealing against water and dust and to provide
proper support. The panel surface must be flat and free of imperfections to maintain an adequate seal and
NEMA Type ratings.

WARNING: When you insert or remove the SD Card while power is on, an electrical arc
can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
TIP
The minimum spacing requirements are sufficient for connecting cables and inserting or
removing a memory card. Plan for additional clearance if using the USB host port on the
back of the unit.
