Mounting Expansion Boards
The XP8500 and Exp-A/D12 expansion boards can be installed in modular
plastic circuit-board holders attached to a DIN rail, a widely used mount-
ing system, as shown in Figure C-3.
The circuit-baord holders are 77 mm wide and come in lengths of
11.25mm, 22.5 mm, and 45 mm. The holders, available from Z-World,
snap together to form a tray of almost any length. Z-Worlds expansion
baords are 72 mm wide and fit directly in these circuit-board holders.
Z-Worlds expansion boards can also be mounted with plastic standoffs to
any flat surface that accepts screws. The mounting holes are 0.125 inches
(1/8 inch) in from the edge of a board, and have a diameter of 0.190 inches.
