1. A plug-in module for a rail-mounted device:
having a housing, which has a first axial end portion and a second axial end portion;
wherein, between the first axial end portion and the second axial end portion, the housing has a plurality of essentially planar side surfaces;
having a first resiliently elastic tongue, which is fitted on a first side surface of the housing;
wherein the first resiliently elastic tongue has a first axial end portion, which is fitted on the housing, and a second axial end portion, which can be moved in a resiliently elastic manner;
wherein a first latching nose is formed between the first and second axial end portions and protrudes from the first side surface of the housing;
and having a first actuating element, which is mounted in a movable manner on the first side surface and can be moved from a first position, in which it is arranged essentially within the housing, into a second position, in which it is located to some extent outside the housing and is arranged in abutment against the second axial end portion;
wherein in the second position, by virtue of a user applying an essentially lateral force to the first actuating element, the first latching nose can be moved into the housing.
