DIN-rail Mounting
The aluminum DIN-rail attachment plate is already attached to the
product’s casing. To mount the UC-8200 Series on to a DIN rail, make
sure that the stiff metal spring is facing upwards and follow these
steps.

1. Pull down the bottom slider
of the DIN-rail bracket
located at the back of the
unit
2. Insert the top of the DIN
rail into the slot just below
the upper hook of the DIN-
rail bracket.
3. Latch the unit firmly on to
the DIN rail as shown in the
illustrations below.

Wall Mounting (optional)
The UC-8200 Series can be mounted on to a wall using a wall-mounting
kit. The optional wall-mounting kit should be purchased separately.
Follow these steps to mount the computer on to a wall:
Step 1
Use four screws to fasten the
wall-mounting brackets on the
left panel of the computer.
Step 2
Use another four screws to
mount the computer on to a wall
or in a cabinet.
IMPORTANT!
The diameter of the screw heads should be
greater than 7 mm
and less than 14 mm; the diameter of the shafts should be less
than 3 mm. The length of the screws should be greater than 6
mm.

- 7 -
NOTE
•Test the screw head and shank size by inserting the screws
into one of the keyhole shaped apertures of the wall-
mounting plates before attaching the plate to the wall.
•
Do not drive the screws in all the way—leave a space of
about 2 mm to allow room for sliding the wall mount panel
between the wall and the screws.
Connector Description
Power Connector
Connect the power jack (in the package)
to the UC-8200 Series’ DC terminal
block (located on the top panel), and
then connect the power adapter. It takes
about 30 seconds for the system to boot
up. Once the system is ready, the Power
LED will light up. Both models support
dual power inputs for redundancy.
WARNING
•
This product is intended to be supplied by a UL Listed
Power Adapter or DC power source marked ‘L.P.S.” (or
“Limited Power Source”) rated 12-48 VDC, 0.25 A
(minimum), and Tma= 85°C (minimum).
•
The power adapter should be connected to a socket outlet
with earthing connection.
If you need further information or assistance, contact a Moxa
representative.
Grounding the UC-8200 Series
There is a grounding connector located on the top panel of the
computer. Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise
due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Connect to an appropriate
grounded metal surface.
Ethernet Ports
The two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports (LAN 1 and LAN 2) use RJ45
connectors.
