    bought a used machine need some help

    I iust purchased a spectralite sherline cnc mill in a encloser. It is used and I need some idenitification on the power supply and the stepper motors and the controller card. Also it would help for sources on the wiring of the motors and the spectralight package as there are 3 cables coming out the box and 1 wall plug, The power supply is a seperate unit. and the controller card is mounted in the power supply with three seperate connection for XYZ motors also a computer conecction and a cable connection ( I believe for limit switches), The box has three switches on the front along with a power switch, AUX, varible -full witha varible knob, cnc enable disable.here are some pictures.

    any help would be appreciated and the wiring looks to be the hardest thing to get done also there is a spectralie controller card and a power supply transformer that I wont be using if anyone is interested I would let them go for a resonable amount.

    Hi Bruno:
    Did you get your SpectraLight mill running? I have a spectralight 0200 mill, controller, but am missing the interface card that goes into the computer. I have both DOS and Windows 95 software for the machine. I tried making the cable that goes to the computer parallel port, but it did not work with my controller. sincerely maksym.
