Abstract
An electronics module mounting system includes a baseplate with a main wall, opposite left and right ends spaced apart from each other along an X axis, and opposite first and second spaced-apart edges extending between the left and right ends. The first and second edges are spaced apart along a Y axis. The baseplate includes a first channel that projects outwardly from the main wall and includes a mounting leg that projects outwardly from the main wall and that forms a mounting recess. A module mounting base is connected to the baseplate and includes a mounting tab located in the mounting recess. The mounting base includes a front face to receive and retain an electronics module and a rear face located opposite the front face. A channel recess is located in the rear face and extends between opposite left and right edges of the mounting base. The channel of the baseplate is located in the channel recess. The mounting base includes first and second electrical connectors that are aligned with each other and aligned with the channel recess. A fastener extends through the mounting base at a location aligned with the channel recess such that the fastener is engaged with the channel of the baseplate.
