INSTALLATION
(Refer to Figures 2, 3, 4, and 5)
Remove all system power before installation,
first battery and then AC. (To power up, con-
nect the AC first and then the battery.)
1. The RDM-MXL must be installed in the MXL
enclosure.
2. The Power Terminal of the RDM-MXL must
be connected to the PLM-35. Refer to the
PLM-35 Installation Instructions, P/N 315-

3. The RDM-MXL is designed to mount on the
MXL-MPFO adapter plate for the MOM-4
position. This bracket has the same footprint
as the MOM-4 and can accommodate 2 RMDMXL modules. An assembly kit is included with
the bracket that contains four nuts and eight
screws. Mount the bracket in the enclosure
with four nuts at the positions labeled “X” in
Figure 2. Refer to Figure 3 for wiring in the
MXL/MXLV enclosure.
