4. Using 4-axis Motion Modules
1) Number of Modules
Up to two 4-axis Motion Modules can be used.
2) Installation Location
a) A 4-axis Motion Module can be mounted to any slot of the Mounting Base of Rack 1
(CPU Rack) of the local channel.
b) The following diagram shows an example of where to mount a 4-axis Motion Module.

Note
Allocate the right slot number for the 4-axis Motion Module. If the left slot number is incorrectly
allocated, the Motion Module will not operate. In the example shown above, allocations for
No.1 MC20 are performed for slot 9 while allocations for No. 2 MC20 are performed for slot 11.
3) Example of System Configuration
a) The following page illustrates an example of system configuration of a 4-axis Motion
Module applied to controlling a servomotor with an absolute encoder.
b) When a 4-axis Motion Module is used to control a servomotor with an incremental en-
coder, the Battery Module (Model No.: JRMSP-120XCP96000) is not required.
