If they are +/- 10 V signals, then the Servo-to-Go should work. Of course,
ISA slots are getting pretty rare in PC's now. My parallel port motion control
board set will also work, and there's nothing needed inside the computer.

The current output of the servo amp has no connection to the velocity command
input to it.

The Servo-to-Go and my cards need quadrature signals. There are converter
boxes that can convert resolver signals to quadrature, but they may be
expensive.
