The probe sockets are designed to be press-fit into a CNC drilled plastic or bakelite plate. The drawing even tells you what size holes to use for a couple different plate materials. The plate determines the mechanical location of the pins, then depending on which socket you use you can wire

There were several different versions of the 611 drives. Most of them were velocity mode drives with analog inputs. I have some old ones (1992 vintage) on a lathe that runs LinuxCNC. They could be purchased with encoder or resolver feedback and a host of other options. Do you know how old they
