They would drive your Copley drives with +- analogue signal, they are typically used by downloading move commands via the serial port in, or downloading 1000 line programs to the card, and are typically used for dedicated motion control tasks, or simple machines that require minimum operator input, if you wanted to write the software, you could develop quite a powerfull CNC machine controller.
They will also do stepper as well as analogue

Thanks Al

I knew it would not be simple; but i got them cheap enough

But a 1000 line program would be big for my barrel operation; most are under 50
