5i23 5 volt power

as before i had 7i80 7i37 7i30 getting the 5 volts from a separate 5 amp power supply.
now I have replaced the 7i80 with the 5i23 since it has 400 milliamps per connector I would like to use that.
or better to use a separate power supply and remove the jumpers W1 and W2 so as not to mix the sources?
thanks

I would use the 5I23 5V especially for step/dir systems
that have low current draw.

an external power supply is better I have 3 encoders and the thcad connected, only the 7i30 does not have the jumper cable / p1 to disconnect pin 49, I remove the 3.3 / 5volt jumper on the 5i23 ?

Yes, removing that jumper disconnects pin 49
