Mounting the CompactRIO Reconfigurable Embedded Chassis
You can mount the chassis in any orientation on a 35 mm DIN rail or on a panel. Use the DIN rail mounting method if you already have a DIN rail configuration or if you need to be able to quickly remove the CompactRIO chassis. Use the panel mount method for high shock and vibration applications. Go to ni.com/info and enter the info code criomounting to learn more about the different mounting methods for CompactRIO. Before using any of the mounting methods, record the serial number from the back of the chassis. You will be unable to read the serial number after you have mounted the chassis.
Caution Before you mount the chassis, make sure that I/O modules are not in the chassis. Caution Your installation must meet the following requirements for space and cabling clearance: · Allow 25.4 mm (1 in.) on the top and the bottom of the chassis for air
circulation. · Allow 50.8 mm (2 in.) in front of modules for cabling clearance for common
connectors, such as the 10-terminal, detachable screw-terminal connector. Go to ni.com/info and enter rdcrioconn to find the minimum cabling clearance for C Series modules with other connector types. Note Go to ni.com/dimensions for more information about the dimensions of the CompactRIO system, including detailed dimensional drawings. The following figures show the dimensions of the four- and eight-slot chassis.
