1. Position the adapter vertically above the DIN rail.

2. Press down firmly to install the adapter on the DIN rail, noting that the locking mechanism locks the adapter to the DIN rail.

3. Set the network address thumbwheel switches to the desired value. For

more information, see Set the Network Address on page 19.

WARNING

If you connect or disconnect the Ethernet cable with power applied to this module or any device on the network, 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.

4. Slide the safety end cap up to remove it.

This exposes the backplane and power interconnections.

ATTENTION

Do not discard the adapter’s end cap. Use this end cap to cover the exposed interconnections on the last mounting base on the

DIN rail. Failure to do so could result in equipment damage or injury from electric shock.
