    Servo Drive Control Mode?

    Hey again guys,
    Sorry, it took a while. Had some paid work in Indonesia and stayed on for a few weeks of holiday and then had to wait to get paid.
    But now, I have a bit of an urgent question as there's deal on some used Delta B3 servos and drives I'd like to pounce on.

    Basic question but what control mode do we need for basic CNC?
    PT (pulse train) Mode?
    So, the L version of the B3 drives?

    Or do all of them do pulse+direction and perhaps, the control modes are some sort of higher level wizardry which I wont ever need?
