DynaMite 2800 retrofit.

So just won an auction for a good looking DynaMite 2800. From what I understand because it is already step/dir it makes a good candidate for cheap restoration. I won't know more about it till I go get it likely next week as to if anything is broken.
(Yes I am probably jumping the gun posting this before I go get it but oh well)

Looks like a real steal. Will be interesting to see what the ways of this machine look like with the covers off.
When you go to pick it up, make sure you get any manuals or especially wiring diagrams for it. They are sitting beside the machine in the first picture.

So picked it up yesterday. Seems to be in great physical condition. Came with a couple extra boards. (Same boards are in the machine so dunno if spares or replaced bad ones.) Also came with all the manuals.

Plan is still to retrofit it as I want something that is Gcode but I am gonna see if I can get it working as it sits.

Well got power to it and it does not fully come up. Not sure where the issue lies. Ill chase it a bit but not too long as I don't wanna run it on the original controller anyways. 

Question though. From what I understand the stepper drivers work on both the rising and falling edges of the waveform. Is this gonna be an issue for linuxcnc?

Are there step and dir signals or is it quadrature?

(quadrature interfaced drives typically step on both edges of the A and B signals)

Gah. Downside to tons of research. I cannot find where I was reading that. Fairly sure it was on cnczone so Ill go back through all the threads tonight.
