Any tips and tricks? I'm getting ready to take a look at this, just picked up one at an auction.

Hi
Assuming ur labvolt functions ok...i bypassed the pc board inside and used a cheap mach3 breakout board
I kept all other electronics
There are lots of ways to retrofit...after 2 yrars of tinkering and once i found out it was very difficult and costly to find the orig proprietary software and retrofit it.
