Installation manual
Publication 1394-IN002B-EN-P — February 2004
Installing Your 1394 SERCOS Interface System 1-17
When mounting your shunt module inside the enclosure, follow these 
additional guidelines (refer to Figure 1.10 and for an example).
• Metal-clad modules can be mounted anywhere in the dirty zone, 
but as close to the 1394 as possible.
• Shunt power wires can be run with motor power cables.
• Keep unshielded wiring as short as possible. Keep shunt wiring as 
flat to the cabinet as possible.
• Separate shunt power cables from other sensitive, low voltage 
signal cables.

Motor Brake and Thermal Switch
The thermal switch and brake are mounted inside the motor, but how 
you connect to the axis module depends on the motor series. Refer to 
Connecting Motor Power, Thermal Switch, and Brake in Chapter 3 for 
wiring guidelines specific to your drive/motor combination. Refer to 
Axis Module/Motor Interconnect Diagrams in Appendix B for the 
interconnect diagram for your drive/motor combination.
