RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] I'm confused where to go from here with CMD-260 and NEMA 42

Thanks Ray. I tried Google without success. I'll try to work backwards
from the motors and see if I can figure out where to head.

Regards,
Jeff

Have you tried a "GOOGLE Search" with searches on the keywords: Positool,
Autonumerics, Position Wizard, Spindle Wizard? With the 4 large resistors,
you may have an old L-R controller (as opposed to the more modern
"switcher" controllers). I can't really help you with any settings, because
none of it relates to my TEXTRON unit. You may have to resort to going into
the archives of this group to get the information you need, unless somebody
knowledgable jumps in to help you. Maybe try another post asking specific
questions about the controllers you've got.
