Installation and Maintenance: GE IC694CHS392
Pre-installation Preparations:
Before installing the IC694CHS392, ensure the mounting surface is flat, grounded, and free of debris. Verify the environment meets temperature (0°C–50°C) and humidity (5–95% non-condensing) requirements. Secure the chassis to a wall or DIN rail using the provided brackets, leaving 50 mm clearance for ventilation. Connect the power supply (24V DC) to the terminal block, ensuring proper polarity, and install the CPU module in the first slot. Configure jumpers for power redundancy if using dual supplies, then install additional I/O or communication modules in subsequent slots.
