1
Remove the expansion protective cover from the IB-1000 (main unit).
2
Install the amplifiers (expansion units) onto the DIN rail.
Do the same as instructed under “DIN rail mount type, main unit.”
3
Push the expansion unit into the main unit connector until a clicking
sound can be heard.
The expansion unit installed next to the main unit is referred to as expansion unit 1.
Subsequent expansion units are referred to as expansion unit 2, expansion unit 3,
and so on.
4
Install the end units (OP-26751: 2 units per set) (sold separately) on both
sides of the amplifiers (main or expansion units). Secure the end units in
place with screws on top (2 on each end unit).
The end units are mounted in the same way as the amplifiers.
Point
Mount the amplifiers securely using the end units (OP-26751: 2
units per set) (sold separately) or a commercially available DIN
rail mounting tool to prevent the amplifiers from slipping and
coming off from the DIN rail due to machine vibration.
