4. Wire the MECHATROLINK-II to the connector on the option card.
When installing option cards to drive models CIMR-A†2A0004 through 0040 and to models CIMR-A†4A0002
through 0023, the cables connected to the option might need to be routed through the top cover to the outside.
In this case, cut out the perforated openings on the left side of the drive top cover. Make sure no sharp edges are
left that may damage the cable.
Models CIMR-A†2A0056 through 0211 and 4A0031 through 0165 have enough space to keep all wiring inside
the unit.
