1. Mount the Compact FieldPoint Backplane

You can mount the cFP-BP-xbackplane on a 35mm DIN rail, on a panel, or in a

standard 19 in. rack. Before using any of these mounting methods, record the serial

number from the back of 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-xbackplane to

the system safety ground. The backplane PE ground terminal has the following

symbol stamped beside it: . Connect the backplane PE ground terminal to the

system 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.

Caution Keep in mind these 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.

Caution If you are using UL Recognized I\O modules with the Compact

FieldPoint system, you must install the entire system in a suitably rated,

UL Listed NEMA or IP enclosure.

Caution NI recommends that you use one of the mounting systems

described in this document. If you decide to use a custom mounting

solution, make sure that the screws you use are short enough to fit in the

holes in the backplane. The screw holes are 5 mm (0.2 in.) deep.

Mounting the Backplane on a Panel

1. Fasten the panel-mount plates to the back of the cFP-BP-xusing a

number 2 Phillips screwdriver and the 8-32 ×5/16 in. countersink screws

shipped with the kit.

Caution Do not use screws longer than 5/16 in. to fasten the

panel-mount plates to the backplane.

Caution Disconnect power before removing the backplane from the

panel.

Mounting the Backplane on a DIN Rail

NI recommends DIN rail mounting for the cFP-BP-4 only. Use panel mounting or

rack mounting for the cFP-BP-8. The DIN rail mounting kit is NI part number

778614-01.

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 clip.
