Abstract

A transmitter and a method for mounting a transmitter on a panel, wherein the panel is a door or wall of an electrical cabinet, a display panel, a control panel or a diaphragm, wherein the transmitter includes a display module and a computer module, wherein the display module includes at least a first securement means and a cable, and the display module is connectable via the cable with the computer module. The method comprises the steps of: drilling at least a first hole in the panel, wherein the first hole is less than the area of the display module lying against the panel bringing the cable from a first side of the panel through the first hole to a second side of the panel securing the display module to the panel using a second securement means complementary to the first securement means securing the computer module to the second side, and connecting the computer module with the display module via the cable.

Claims (14)

1. A method for mounting a transmitter on a panel, wherein the panel is a door or wall of an electrical cabinet, a display panel, a control panel or a diaphragm, wherein the transmitter includes a display module and a computer module, wherein the display module is connectable via a cable with the computer module, the method comprising the steps of:

drilling at least a first hole in the panel, wherein the first hole is less than the area of the display module lying against the panel;

bringing the cable from a first side of the panel through the first hole to a second side of the panel;

securing the display module to the panel using a first securement means and a second securement means complementary to the first securement means,—securing the computer module to the second side; and

connecting the computer module with the display module via the cable.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising the steps of:

drilling at least a second hole in the panel; and

bringing the first securement means from the first side through the second hole to the second side.

3. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein:

the second securement means is used as a drilling template and the display module is secured to the panel via the drilling template.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

the computer module is secured to the second side on a support rail, especially on a top hat rail.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

the computer module includes an intelligent unit, especially a microcontroller, communication modules, digital and/or analog sensor modules, digital and/or analog actuator modules, relay or voltage supply modules.
