Installing the Makito XH

1. Position the appliance against a solid base, with the connectors facing downwards.

   

   Caution

   The surface temperature of the chassis can reach 95°C in poorly ventilated environments. We recommend that you fasten the appliance to a metal (cold) plate to increase heat dissipation.

   

   

   Caution

   The chassis and power adapter must be positioned with the connectors facing downwards to minimize the possibility of water penetration.
2. Fasten the appliance to its support base with four screws (size 8-32, or 6 mm). Alternatively, you can use stainless steel, harsh-environment cable ties, which can be passed through slots in the chassis.

3. Fasten a grounding wire (10 AWG minimum) to the grounding lug using the nut and lock washer provided (as shown in the following encoder example).
   
   
   

   

   Caution

   The chassis must be properly grounded in order to provide protection against lightning strikes and other power surges.
