Mounting the module rack
The module rack can either be snapped onto a top hat (DIN) rail, 
or screwed directly onto the mounting plate.
Mounting on the top hat rail
X
Use a screwdriver to pull out the locking bar until the catch 
snaps into position. The locking bar is then held in this 
position
.
X
Place the module rack on the top hat mounting rail so that the 
top edge of the rail fits into the slot, and then slide the module 
rack into the correct position  .

Press down the catch of the locking bar. The bar snaps in behind 
the edge of the mounting rail. Check that the module rack is 
firmly seated

If you want to fit an expansion module rack: push it to the left, 
until the bus connector of the expansion module rack can be 
plugged into the bus connector socket of the XC-CPU400/600 
or the basic or expansion module rack. Take care that the bus 
connectors of the module racks are completely engaged, in 
order to ensure reliable electrical contact. 
Mounting on the mounting plate
The spring contacts that protrude from the back of the module 
rack are intended to provide a ground for the modules. They must 
have a reliable electrical contact with the mounting plate.
Take care that the contact areas are protected from corrosion and 
– if you are using painted mounting plates – that the paint layer is 
removed from the contact areas.
X
Plug the bus connector of the expansion module rack into the 
bus connector of the XC-CPU400/600 or the basic or expansion 
module rack. Take care that the bus connectors of the module 
racks are completely engaged, in order to ensure reliable 
electrical contact. 
Detaching the module rack

Use a screwdriver to pull out the locking bar until the catch 
snaps into position. The locking bar is then held in this 
position

rack along the top hat rail to the right, until the bus connectors 
are disengaged.

Caution!
The expansion module rack must only be plugged in or 
pulled out when the power is switched off. FIrst detach 
the CPU or I/O modules that were plugged into the 
module rack. Discharge yourself from any electrostatic 
charge before touching electronic modules. Voltage peaks 
on the bus connector may cause malfunction or damage 
to the modules.
