Hat just saw this. I'm currently stripping a old fanuc lathe to run linuxcnc. I found that the fanuc servo drives are too hard to with with. But to mention so old. I just buy new Chinese servo motors and drives. They are $300 usd for a 2.4kw matching drive and motor. And really high quality.
Also I managed to get my original fanuc velocity amp working with a pot and switches I lucked out and it just uses a 0_10v signal and fwd/rev switches. The option is some custom pwm thing. My lathe is a 1989 model nakurma (Okuma) Let me know if you want more info..
