V2XT conversion. Help with wiring how to's

My brains are getting fried. I have the Mach Motion Interpreter 1000 which is basicly a dspMC in disguise. I bought new EMI servo amps a few years ago. I have made a lot of progress on the wiring but I am a little confused on how to wire the servo amps up. Have stock servo motors.

EMI XYZ amps:
1 +- 10v
2 0v
3 Tach+
4 Tach-
5 Ground (I got this one figured out...)
6 nothing
7 Axis Enable (5v?)
8 Axis Fault

Do I even need to use all of these?
Thanks, RonO

Not familiar with the amps, but generally Tach is no longer used in current systems.
1-2 analogue in
7 if you want to disable the drives in E-stop
8 if you want to register a fault either back to the controller or the E-stop circuit.

On the breakout board it has analogue inputs XYZ(+-10v) and a single ground.

I assume #1(+10v) goes there. Does #2(0v) go to that ground?
#8 sounds like an option.
#7 goes to what?

It appears that any of the GND pins can be used for the analogue 0v, I don't know why they did not supply one for each output.
7 shows going to a selected output on any I/O 0-15.
For 8 you would need to know the nature of the output, contact closure, NPN/PNP etc.
If contact, they could be series'd up in the E-stop string, otherwise you may have to put a small relay on each in order to achieve a hardwired E-stop.
There are a few ways it could be done.

Thanks to Al and TotallyRC for jumping in and clearing things up. I pulled the Servo amps and found they are ServoDynamics 1525br models. Got the manual from their website and it had all the info I needed including a very easy to understand wiring diagram.

One less thing...
