Welcome aboard!
From a quick look at the wiring diagram, you should be able to drive the X and Z steppers (bipolar parallel wired, see sheet AC6-05) directly off the Geckos. Looks like steppers run off a seperate power supply integrated on slave board, but no indication of voltage.
X and Z homing (datum) sensors are 24v but should be interfaceable OK.
Spindle motor might be trickier, its 3-phase, and the spindfle and toolpost drive seems to be 1-phase in, 3-phase out but not clear at what voltages - suspect 415v. Spindle encoder goes back to slave board then a 2-core screened goes to spindle control board - I'm guessing thats a control voltage for spindle speed. Should be able to drive that direct from Mach.Last edited by irving2008; 09-03-2010 at 11:13 PM.
