General Mach Discussion / Galil plugin question

« on: January 09, 2007, 03:00:15 PM »

I have a manual Hardinge lathe I am retrofitting to CNC and I was wondering if the Galil plug-in would be a better option than the GRex. I intend on using some Yaskawa Servos/Drives I have. To use these with the GRex I would need to use a converter to go from step/dir to analogue. Could the Galil interface directly with them? I haven't seen detailed specs on the galil so I am not too sure of the inputs/outputs it accepts. Does it support analogue and MPG inputs? If not, I guess I could use a ModIO board for these.
