Galil DMC-1580 Motion Controller 8-Axis Control 1500 Series Servo | eBay (http://www.ebay.es/itm/Galil-DMC-1580-Motion-Controller-8-Axis-Control-1500-Series-Servo-/111172003928?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19e25e2858&_uhb=1)

Seems very interesting. Here is the pdf (http://www.galilmc.com/catalog/legacy/catlegacy.pdf)for it i found.

I found this (DMC 1500) , it talks about an editor on page 79
