I am trying to interface a breakout board to the step and direction inputs on the original drives.
Could someone describe what is required.

What i need to know is what input are they expecting.
+5v +12v +24v
how much current is required.

12v, and if you do a search on here for digiplan there's a circuit describing how to drive the step and direction inputs from a parallel port
