Chris:

Actually most of your high end commercially available servo drives accept the
step/directions signals and then turn them into PWM signals which control the
servo motor. Yes, the 10V does control the speed and that is what I am
trying to control here, the 10V also controls the direction, depending upon
whether it is positive or negative. The encoder feeds back into the
controller or in this case back into the "converter" that I am looking for.
Also, Mariss at Gecko Drives has their model 320 and 340 which also does the
same thing. I am ordering the 320 for a project on which I am currently
working. I was just looking for a more cost effective means of doing the
conversion but there may not be one.

Thanks for the replies,

Randy A.
