triac spindle motor (servo)

[comet]

Hi I have updated my triac with later steppers/drivers also mach 3.
The machine has the servo type spindle motor,
I would like to control it passively with just a switch and a pot for now,how do I do that?
is there any electronics schematics available?
cheers

Ok found the manual it all looks straight forward,hope it works,as i havnt put power to it yet.
if not Ive got a eurotherm 508 that should do the job.
is there any market for all the original triac electronics? as im mach3ing this with new steppers and drivers?
