Our SuperMax cnc mill had one of those, I never used it (the
display was broken), and of course replaced with with by my 1KW
75VDC power supply and 3 Gecko 201's and a P200 computer.

However, I we still have the manual kicking around, I could
look something up if that is what you had in mind (but
we're not going to be selling the manual itself).

The Bandit we had, as I recall, had a 56V base output, and
half stepping. Using the same motors, we got somewhat better
accelerations and an increase of 5X the accuracy
(0.000 10" steps vs 0.000 50" steps) by going with the Geckos.
These steps show up nicely on 1/10th dial indicators...

My email is on my website for off-line correspondance.
