Installing the IMC-S/23x
The IMC-S/23x should be mounted to a panel inside an electrical 
cabinet or enclosure. For best performance, it should be mounted as 
close as practical to the servo drives with which it is being used. This 
minimizes the length of cable required to interconnect the units, thus 
minimizing the risk of electrical noise pickup. See the Introduction 
section of this manual for mounting and clearance dimensions. 
The recommended panel layout for using the IMC-S/23x with 
Allen-Bradley 1391B-ES or 1391-DES AC servo drives is shown 
below. Panel layouts for use with other servo drives should be similar. 
Be sure to keep the power and signal wires segregated in separate 
wireways for maximum noise immunity.
Each axis of the IMC-S/23x connects to a 1391 drive via a 
4100-CCAQB pre-engineered cable assembly. Both ends of this cable 
assembly are terminated in the appropriate mating connectors for the 
motion controller and the drive. The 4100-CCAQB cable assembly 
replaces both the 4100-CCSxxF and the 4100-CCAxxF when used with 
a 1391B-ES or 1391-DES servo drive. Axis-specific dedicated I/O not 
required by the servo drive (home input, overtravel inputs, drive fault 
input, and registration input) are available via 15 foot (4.5 meter) flying 
leads for termination to user devices or a user-supplied terminal block.
