Hi Todd. I'm italian but I don't know anything about this drive. The manufacturer company is small and the product seem to be a sort of custom made (maybe for the stop manufacturer) . The documentation pdf that you posted is not sufficient to understand how to connect properly the drive. The rs-485 serial line maybe it's not a modbus compliant communication. The drive should have a +/-10Vdc command voltage (speed command control) but you need to understand if the dc motor have a tachometer for the speed feedback or the motor is controlled for the speed loop using the encoder showed on the electrical drawing . The drive documentation is just a concise information about it , not really usable. The only chance that you have is to try to contact again the Easys (drive manufacturer) in order to get the complete documentation (if it really exist) .
