    Question Controlling Analog Servo Drives?!

    I've recently aquired some analog servo drives which run DC motors on a mill, however the original controller on the mill does not function so I am unable to command the drives to move.

    If I can buy a controller that can supply +-10V analog control, how do I go about tuning the servo drives them selves?

    I use a galil controller, the servo loop is closed and tuned in the controller. The tuning is performed through their software. Wsdk32 or galilsuite.

    The machine I'm using has the older analog DC motor drives, how do I program/setup the drives without the original controller?
