Mounting the NI 9910 DIN-Rail Kit
The NI 9910 DIN-Rail kit contains one clip for mounting the chassis on a
standard 35 mm DIN-Rail. To mount the chassis on a DIN-Rail, fasten the
DIN-Rail clip to the chassis using a number 2 Phillips screwdriver and
two M4 × 16 screws. The screws are included in the DIN-Rail kit. Make
sure the DIN-Rail kit is installed as illustrated in Figure 4, with the larger
lip of the DIN-RAIL positioned up. When the DIN-Rail kit is properly
installed, the NI cDAQ-9172 chassis is centered on the DIN-Rail.
Caution Remove the I/O modules before removing the chassis from the DIN-Rail.

Mounting the NI 9905 Panel Mount Kit
To mount the chassis on a panel, align the chassis on the panel mount
accessory. Attach the chassis to the panel mount kit using two M4 × 16
screws (as pictured in the following diagram). National Instruments
provides these screws with the panel mount kit. You must use these screws
because they are the correct depth and thread for the panel. These slots in
the panel mount kit can be used with M4, M5, No. 8, or No.10 panhead
