Assembly, Startup, and Dismantling

y Assembly: Place the media converter on the DIN rail from above using

the slot. Push the front of the media converter toward the mounting
surface until it audibly snaps into place.

y Startup: Connect the supply voltage to start up the media converter via

the terminal block (or DC JACK).

y Dismantling: Pull out the lower edge and then remove the media

converter from the DIN rail.
