License to use Ability Systems Indexer LPT software was sold to Digital Tool customers at a price tied to the condition that it would not be transferred, so I hope that only the Anaheim Automation unit pictured is being sold and not the software. That said - this Anaheim Automation translator was used on 8' x 4' wood routers, and is suitable also for retrofitting machines like knee mills. It powers up unipolar type stepper motors (six leads, or eight leads configured to six leads), typically NEMA 34, and I believe is capable of about six amps per motor.
The conglomeration of wires extending into the little circuit boards that are visibly mounted to the steel plates, as well as the circuit boards themselves, can probably be eliminated so that the translator can be hooked up in a manner similar to the Anaheim Automation unit shown on our home page at

This looks like a four axis unit, though it appears as if only three axes were being used. I don't know if the driver card for the forth axis is in there, but I am sure that the seller has this information. It looks like a potential for a real bargain - though like anything used, risks are involved. If the buyer decides to outfit this thing with some new Ability Systems software, I can provide some informed advise in getting it operational.
