Thanks to everyone for your replies so far.
If you look back at post #12, I attached a bunch of pics...
In the second large wiring diagram it lists the Tamagawa Seiki driver as AU6270N203E25 and shows that it is compatible with step/dir. That's a 200 VAC driver....I want to use 120 VAC wall power ideally...As previously mentioned, I don't want to move these at 1200 mm/s, which is the rated speed of the stages, 400 mm/s is plenty fine for me.
But let's say I had those drivers and was running them at 200VAC, what would be stopping me? I'd need to tune the servos still, so could I do that through the drives or would I need some software to run on a computer and a manual? Where would I get that software? Hmmm...
It also lists the 100VAC driver as AU6270N106E15, that's directed towards the 100V servos, don't know if it could be made to work with mine.
There are Tamagawa Seiki drivers to be found....but I don't know how to interpret the differences in part numbers or find the manuals, etc.

TBL servo drives, 2 for $55. AU6551N282E140
I can't find anything on this page about them:

The problem isn't that it can't be done, my problem is that I don't know how to do it.
One of the members here has the same stages that I do, and he didn't have a problem getting it done.

He used some Emerson or Control Techniques EN-204 or EN-208 sinusoidal drives to drive Tamagawa motors. I couldn't find any of these drives on EBay less than an arm, but the point is, for him, it wasn't too hard. I just don't have the experience with it. I was looking at the Leadshine ACS806, but it looks to be trapezoidal, which the Tamagawa's don't like.
