Never heard of anyone using a rotary phase converter to power a step-up transformer, as the third leg is usually a bit weak, but good luck to you. Had a look at mine, and it does say 240V on the door...

You are asking the wrong guy, as all I have done was remove the motherboard, hard drive, disk drive, and power supply to see if I could get them working. I saw the large transformer under the tail...

It might be worth mentioning that mine is a '94 model, so they may have changed things as the product matured. Seems short sighted that they would only offer 460V operation, as some don't have it in...

You may have a problem, Bert. I also just bought one of those, and looking at the motor yesterday, I discovered that it was a two-speed, 460 volt only motor. The electrical schematic says that for...

I have got the Operation, Parts, and Electrical schematic on PDF if you would like them. The electrical schematic is only one 11 x17 sheet, no break down for all the boards like the old manuals. They...

Thanks for the offer of the software, which I may take advantage of if my version won't load. Disks were laying in the chip pan when I bought the lathe so I am hoping they aren't corrupted.

Good ol' Mach3. I did a conversion on a BP mill that runs great, and was cheap, about a grand. I'll have to plead ignorance about the software you are asking about, I only have a copy of the...

I was looking at the BP/Romi manual the other day, and in it they made a statement that if the DC voltage for the drives was too high, to use another tap, so there may be lower voltage taps...

Your analysis of the situation seems spot on MH57, except for one thing, the Geckos have a maximum voltage input of 80vdc, while the BP servo supply is about 100vdc. Have you ever done one of this...
