    Do they accept step and direction signals, or something else?

    Gerry,
    Great question. I'm a newbie. But i believe its a step.. i can set the pulse on the ss2000d6 drivers. But if you would like im going to include a pdf of the manual for the mx2000 and the ss2000d6 motor drives. I'm trying to make the Mach3 work with this unit.. maybe i can so i don't have to start from scratch. Take a look at it and tell me what you think.. That would be a great help in determining if i can use this setup some how.

    The MX2000 won't work with Mach3, but the drives should.
