    retrofitting km3

    I am in the process of retrofitting an old hurko km3 to a camsoft controller.
    I not an electrician so I am not entirely sure where to tie the lines from camsoft into the hurco wiring. I think I need to tie in before the servo amps, but not specifically where.
    Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Tim

    Can you give a little more info on what the CamSoft controller needs?

    I have loaded the camsoft software on a 3gig pc. it comes with a motion controller board that connects to 24 volt output. I believe it is capable of outputting 5 and 10 volts as well, along with analog or digital signals. Once I have the servo's wired up, there are also outputs for the other feeds (spindle, coolant, etc).
    Thanks for any input you can offer!
