Marius if you will get the wiring schematic this will be sure a big help to understand how to approach the retrofit in the right way. The cabinet is in any case in a good shape and very well integrated from the original manufacturer. Check out as much as possible what there are as "options" on the machine and the CNC functions as well. The analog command to the drives maybe is 9V==max speed in order to get 1V for the extra speed/position loop correction. You can check it out in some way. If there is a probe for the tool setting or for the piece setting check it out witch type it is and how it is connected to the fast I/O system of the actual CNC. Have fun with this potential retrofit.
