It's a good idea Clive, but the input to the driver is on an IDC 2x4 pin connector and the documentation is in Chinglish. I have had to make an adapter to fit these drivers to a normal BoB, as the original BoB went up the Swanee a long time ago. I have got 3 Parker Digiplan drivers spare, so I might just wire one in place. An alternative is to get this kit and use the drivers. I have now opened up the driver and taken the circuit board out. It looks as though it was made in a shed, the soldering is poor and there is flux residue everywhere. I have cleaned it up, but hold out little hope. The optos look like 1L6704, at least that's the marking on IC's where optos ought to be.

I'll plug it back in and try it, just for fun.

I am annoyed with myself for buying the original kit from those people in Devon as it was overpriced and obsolete when they sold it. Support from them was non-existent, so I would not even think about any help now.

I have been trying desperately to get the machine up an running, as I have 18 carved wood blocks to make, and other jobs are waiting on it.
