  • Page 19: Installing

    Controller Installing Mounting The AMC2-4R4 can be attached on a standard 35 mm (1.377 in.) mounting rail using a snap-in mechanism. Attach the AMC2-4R4 into the upper edge of the mounting rail [1], then push down the device and snap it onto the rail by pushing it towards the back [2].

  • Page 20: Unmounting

    To remove the AMC2-4R4 from a mounting rail, first remove all pluggable connectors. Push down the AMC2-4R4 until the lower edge snaps out of the mounting rail [1]. Pull the lower end of the AMC2-4R4 from the mounting rail [2].

  • Page 21: Opening The Case

    Notice! To open the AMC2-4R4, first remove all pluggable connectors. The AMC2-4R4 case consists of a top cover mounted with a two- point snap-in closure on a chassis. To open the case, push down the two snap-ins with a screwdriver, then swing the cover down.

  • Page 22: Closing The Case

    Insert the hooks on the lower edge of the front cover into the lugs on lower edge of the plastic back cover [1]. Please ensure that the BOSCH logo is not upside-down. The upper edge of the front cover now aligns with the two-point snap-in closures on the upper edge of the back cover [2], and may thus be clicked gently into place.

  • Page 23: Cabling

    Cabling Notice! Risk of malfunction The cables used in the AMC2-4R4 access control system are not prone to electrical interference. However, you should avoid routing cables close to heavy load switching cables and equipment. If this is unavoidable, cross the cable at right angles every 1 to 2 m (3 to 6 ft) to reduce interference.
