Gona be tougher, but it is doable, so:
- need to locate the drive control wires, fairly easy, should be 3 cables shielded and grounded at the control box
- need to locate 3 encoder cables, easy as they are fully shielded and grounded at the control box
- 3 sensor cables used as home and both limits for each axis
- e-stop loop wiring, again fairly easy as one e-stop is on the control panel
- drive enable wire, this is a bit tricky to find as it goes to the power control box, in my case it was wrong on the schematics
For the encoder cables, be sure to locate the + and - power wires, there are 8 wires for each encoder as they are differential ones. That can be easily done while they are still attached to the old electronics.

Thats a shame. I have a friend who has a 1928 Cadillac and he was able to pay $50 and receive a hand written build sheet of that particular vehicle with complete details of paint and upholstery and who did what on the assembly line, I thought that was pretty amazing..

We will make the custom case and mount the cards this weekend.
We haven't yet received the motor and the two parts with it.
