deckel fp4ma retrofit

all i want is to send lots of gcodes to machine.so if this controller does that,immore than happy to use it.by the way there is just on of those haidenhine boxes in control box .what is with those battries.what are they used for.they are probebly empty right?is there a manual for this controller electrical wiring?these three ports are in picture are encoders becuase when i disconnect them .the axis in monitor doesnt change value.how about that?

How about encoders?as i understand they are linear encoder and tachometer.are they useable with 7i77?about those wires; i think i can't do that because i never done that so i dont want to cause more trouble unless i'm certain about what i'm doing

I do not recal that mentioned here! That is .........complicated !
Using a VFD is an option but it will not have the full range of power.

I wrote a HAL component for that:

But that is a puzzle for the future.
