Installation Guidelines

Orientation: The controller must be mounted horizontally to ensure proper thermal dissipation. Vertical mounting is not supported.
Environment: Install in a clean, dry industrial environment. Ensure the installation location does not exceed Over Voltage Category II.
Wiring: Verify the 100/240V AC power source before connection. Refer to the specific terminal block diagrams for input/output wiring to prevent damage.
Safety: Always power down the system before inserting or removing modules or performing wiring changes.
ESD Handling: Use standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the unit to protect internal circuitry.
