ICM-1100 Interconnect Module
The ICM-1100 Interconnect Module provides easy connections between the DMC-1500 series
controllers and other system elements, such as amplifiers, encoders, and external switches. The ICM-
1100 accepts each DMC-1500 ribbon cable (for J2, J3, J4 and J5) and breaks them into screw-type
terminals. Each screw terminal is labeled for quick connection of system elements.
The ICM-1100 is packaged as a circuit board mounted to a metal enclosure. A version of the ICM-
1100 is also available with servo amplifiers (see AMP-11X0).
Features
• Breaks out all DMC-1500 ribbon cables into individual screw-type terminals.
• Clearly identifies all terminals
• Provides jumper for connecting limit and input supplies to 5 volt supply from PC.
• Available with on-board servo drives (see AMP-1100).
• 10-pin IDC connectors for encoders.
