1 Overview
An Energy Pack is used in conjunction with a Controller
to preserve user memory in the Controller during power
fluctuations or outages.
If system power is lost, the Energy Pack maintains power
long enough for a Controller to write its user memory
contents to non-volatile memory. When system power is
restored, the user memory is restored if the Controller is
configured to power up from RAM.

2 Hardware Installation
The Energy Pack can be mounted on a standard EN50022
DIN rail or an equipment panel. It is designed to be
mounted adjacent to the Controller and connected to the
Controller using the provided cable (IC695CBL003).
Heat dissipation: When mounting the Energy Pack,
allow a minimum clearance of 25.4mm (1 inch) on all four
sides of the unit (right, left, top and the bottom).
2.1 Mounting the Energy Pack on a DIN Rail
The Energy Pack snaps easily onto the DIN rail. No tools
are required.
1) Incline Energy Pack so that top edge of plastic
recess (Figure 2) engages top of DIN rail
2) Swivel the Energy Pack so that bottom spring-
loaded plastic clip engages bottom of DIN rail.
3) Listen for click as plastic clip springs back,
securing the Energy Pack onto the DIN rail.
