i am in contact with the servo guys an waiting on a quote for the dongle which is the key to the software that i do have but it seems quite antiquated and even then dont really know how user friendly their system is. ill have to wait and see what the dongles gonna cost then weigh out my options. so if i were to get a driver would i need to get some one who knows how to hooke it all up or would i need to totally redo my box? im ordering the manual for the SII today hopefully theres some more info there be a few days before i get it.

been doing a little research and this is what the guy from servo II said "The Servo II does not use step and direction inputs it is a full closed loop
servo system with the Positioning commands coming from a PC with the
Servosource CNC program via an RS232 high speed connection." not real sure what all of this means but am i stuck or will i be able to run mach 3 on this machine?
