Chapter 1 Getting Started with the cDAQ Chassis
NI cDAQ-9184/9188
You can panel mount the cDAQ chassis with or without a panel mount kit:
• Panel Mounting with a Panel Mount Kit—Use the NI 9904 panel mount kit to mount the
NI cDAQ-9184 chassis on a panel. Use the NI 9905 panel mount kit to mount the
NI cDAQ-9188 chassis on a panel.
Caution Remove the C Series I/O module(s) from the cDAQ chassis before you
mount the chassis to the panel. After the cDAQ chassis is mounted, you can reinsert
the C Series module(s).
Align the cDAQ chassis on the panel mount accessory and attach the chassis to the
accessory with two screws (included in the kit), as shown in Figure 1-11. The
NI cDAQ-9184 uses two M4 × 22 screws. The NI cDAQ-9188 uses two M4 × 17 screws.
You must use these screws because they are the correct depth and thread for the panel.
You can then attach the panel mount accessory to a wall or panel with the two holes or the
four keyholes with M4, M5, No. 8, or No. 10 panhead screws. National Instruments does
not provide these screws with the chassis. Refer to the documentation included with the
panel mount kit for more detailed dimensions.
