Word "digital" does not scare me. I like digital signals while I know them. But this is not the case. At least yet.
There are three ways I am thinking of: 1. buy and use another servo drives. Mesa 8i20 (2200W 3 Phase Amplifier) seems ok except for 3.6kW motor. Will it be enough, just not at full power..? Or else where to get servo drive / amp for 3.6kW motor at reasonable price? 2. reverse-engineer the protocol of existing electronics, copy and use it 3. program chips on servo boards to work like I need 4. find points where to connect to to control obvious electronics like transistor HI/LO inputs, disconnect existing parts and connect mesa cards with hostmot2 What do you think? But I am going to do some examination first.. On 2013.04.25 15:58, andy pugh wrote: > This looks like it might be complicated.
