Hi All
I have been asked to upgrade a machine that has a very old control system still running on DOS. It is fitted with Yaskawa SGDB-03VDY1 drives. I cannot seem to find reference to that extract number. There are two 2.9Kw motors and one 0.45Kw. They all have incremental encoders.
From the documentation that I could find I could not see how to drive
these things. It looks like a communications protocol that they use.

I have to decide how to go about retrofitting this machine. Do I keep the motors (they are still very good) and keep the drives (dont know how to drive). Does Mesa have a solution to drive these? Or do I dump the drives and use another set of drives? What will I use or, Do I dump the lot and start fresh. What will I use in the place of Yaskawa?

Has anyone on the forum used these with reasonable success?

I would like to go 7i80 so that I can fit an industrial panel mount pc with touch screen.

Any thought from the wise ones?
