Installation
Connecting System Power
Connect your 12 to 48 VDC power source to the terminal block SP+ and SP-
terminals on the ioThinx 4510. The ground connector of the system is on the
back of the unit, which will connect to the DIN rail when the product is
attached to it.
Connecting Field Power
The ioThinx 4510 can receive field power through a 12/24 VDC power input. Field power can be used to supply power for some I/O modules, such as digital input and analog output modules.
Connecting the Field Power Ground
Connect the Field Ground pin () to the field power ground.
Connecting to the Network
Ethernet Communication
The ioThinx 4510 is equipped with dual unmanaged LAN ports (RJ45). Connect a
network Ethernet cable to either port to provide an Ethernet connection to the
unit.
Serial Communication
The ioThinx 4510 is equipped with a 3-in-1 serial interface, which supports 1 RS-232 port, or 1 RS-422 port, or 2 RS-485 ports. Refer to the pin assignment table below to set up serial connections to the unit.

45M Module Wiring
For detailed 45M module wiring, refer to the ioThinx 4510 User’s Manual on
Moxa’s official website.
Installing the System on a DIN Rail
Step 1 : Hook the mounting clip of the unit onto the DIN rail and lower the clip onto the DIN rail. Reserve at least 5.5 cm of space above the DIN rail to ensure that there is enough room to install the unit.
Step 2: Push the unit toward the DIN rail until the mounting clip snaps in place.
Installing a 45M Module on a DIN-Rail
Step 1 : Align the 45M module side by side with the head/CPU module, making sure that the upper and lower rails are hooked together.
Step 2: Align the 45M module side by side with the head/CPU module and then push the 45M module until it touches the DIN rail. Next, apply more force until the module clips to the DIN rail.
NOTE After the module is firmly attached to the DIN rail, the module connections to the internal bus will be established.
Removing a 45M Module from a DIN Rail
Step 1: Use your finger to lift the release tab on the lower part of the module.
Step 2: Push the top of the release tab to latch it, and then pull the module out.
NOTE Electrical connections for the internal bus will be disconnected when removing the 45M module.
WARNING
Be sure the power is off before removing modules to avoid damaging the
equipment.
Installing the Covers on the First and Last Module
Attach the covers to the first and last module to cover the modules’ contacts.
NOTICE
Be sure to attach the covers to provide electrostatic discharge protection.
Horizontal Installation
Before installing the device, make sure there is enough space between the device and nearby items (walls, other devices, etc.) to ensure proper heat dissipation. To ensure that the device works properly, we suggest reserving the amount of space indicated in the adjacent figure.
CAUTION
DO NOT install the device vertically. If the device is installed vertically,
the fanless heat dissipation design will not perform as intended.
