Abstract
An information handling system couples at a location with a rail clip that couples to a rail, such as with a DIN rail system. A sensor detects engagement of the rail clip at the rail and signals extending members that extend outward from the rail clip to press against the rail. At disengagement of the rail clip from the rail, the extending members retract to release the rail for removal of the information handling system. In one embodiment, the sensor and extending members are integrated in the information handling system to support extension and retraction with commands through the information handling system, such as by network communications.
