This document describes how to mount the cFP-2200/2210/2220
controllers, how to connect the controllers to networks, and how to use
the features of the controllers. This document also contains specifications
for the controllers. In this document, the cFP-2200/2210/2220 controllers
are referred to inclusively as the cFP-22xx.

What You Need to Install the cFP-22xx

❑ cFP-22xx intelligent real-time controller

❑ cFP-BP-4 or cFP-BP-8 Compact FieldPoint backplane

❑ Compact FieldPoint I/O modules

❑ Compact FieldPoint connector blocks and/or cables

❑ Ethernet cable

❑ Mounting hardware (DIN rail, panel-mount, or rack-mount accessory)

❑ Two M4 or number 10 panhead screws (for panel mounting only)

❑ Number 2 Phillips screwdriver

❑ 14 AWG (1.6 mm) wire with ring lug to fit #8 screw

❑ 11–30 VDC Power supply

❑ PC running Windows

❑ FieldPoint software 6.0.1 or later

❑ LabVIEW Real-Time Module 8.5.1 or later

Mounting the Compact FieldPoint Backplane

You can mount the cFP-BP-x backplane on a 35 mm DIN rail, on a panel,
or in a standard 19 in. rack. NI recommends DIN rail mounting for the
cFP-BP-4 only. Use panel mounting or rack mounting for the cFP-BP-8.
Use the panel mounting method for high shock and vibration applications.
Before using any mounting method, record the serial number from the back
of the backplane. You will be unable to read the serial number after you
have mounted the backplane.

Each set of mounting instructions in this document includes an instruction
to connect the protective earth (PE) ground terminal on the cFP-BP-x
backplane to the system safety ground. The backplane PE ground terminal

cFP-2200/2210/2220 2 ni.com

has the following symbol stamped beside it: . Connect the backplane PE
ground terminal to safety ground using 14 AWG (1.6 mm) wire with a ring
lug. Use the 5/16 in. panhead screw shipped with the backplane to secure
the ring lug to the backplane PE ground terminal.

To ensure maximum cooling efficiency, mount the Compact FieldPoint so
that the I/O module vents are at the top and bottom, as shown in the
following figure:

Caution

Your installation must meet the following requirements for space and cabling

clearance:

• Allow at least 51 mm (2 in.) all around the backplane for air circulation.

• Allow 38 mm (1.5 in.) below and 51 mm (2 in.) above the controller.

Mounting the Backplane on a DIN Rail

The DIN rail mounting kit is NI part number 778614-01. You need one kit
to mount the cFP-BP-4 on a standard 35 mm DIN rail. Complete the
following steps to mount the backplane on a DIN rail.

1. Fasten the DIN rail clip to the cFP-BP-4 using a number 2 Phillips
screwdriver and the 8-32 × 5/16 in. countersink screws shipped with
the mounting kit.

Caution

Do not use screws longer than 5/16 in. to fasten the DIN rail clip to the backplane.

2. Insert one edge of the DIN rail into the deeper opening of the DIN rail
clip, as shown in Figure 8.

3. Press down firmly on the backplane to compress the spring until the
clip locks in place on the DIN rail.

4. Connect the PE ground terminal on the backplane to safety ground.

Caution Disconnect power and make sure that no I/O modules are in the backplane before

removing it from the DIN rail.

Mounting the Backplane on a Panel

The horizontal panel-mount kit has mounting holes on the sides of the
backplane and is NI part number 778616-01. The vertical panel-mount kit
has mounting holes on the top and bottom of the backplane and is NI part
number 778688-01. Complete the following steps to mount the system on
a flat surface.

1. Fasten the panel-mount plates to the back of the cFP-BP-x using a
number 2 Phillips screwdriver and the 8-32 × 5/16 in. countersink
screws shipped with the kit. You must use these screws because they
are the correct depth and thread for the plates and backplane.

2. Bolt the rack-mount bracket to a standard 19 in. rack.

3. Connect the PE ground terminal on the cFP-BP-x to safety ground.

Caution Disconnect power and make sure that no I/O modules are in the backplane before

removing it from the rack.

You can install an 8 in. DIN rail in the rack-mount kit to mount a power
supply such as the PS-5. The captive #10-32 nuts on the rack-mount kit
make it easy to attach a DIN rail. Use two #10-32 screws of 3/8 in. length
as shown in Figure 18. If you want to install flat washers under the screw
heads, use a slightly longer screw, up to 1/2 in. length. If you need more
DIN rail space, you can install an 18 in. rail in a second rack-mount kit
using four #10-32 screws.
