Installing Your 1394 SERCOS Interface System
1-13
Observe the following guidelines when installing your 1756-MxxSE
SERCOS interface module (refer to Figure 1.8 for zone locations).
•
The clean zone (C) is beneath the less noisy modules (I/O, analog,
encoder, registration, etc. (grey wireway).
•
The dirty zone (D) is above the chassis and below the noisy
modules (black wireway).
•
The SERCOS fiber-optic cables are immune to electrical noise, but
are relatively fragile and best run with other light weight cables.
