Actually a CNC machine that I need some service info on the resolver
amp, serial to parallel converter and counters/hex inverters/flip
flops etc.. Too old and obsolete for any free data archives. I just
want to check for the proper resolver stator frequency and voltage
level as something is on the fringe of being out of tolerance by the
way the motion control is erroring. Cant do that without service info
and none seems to be had for free so far.

I can't read the writing on it.

Didja check the optical encoder glass for dirt before you started in
with the electronic stuff?

Well when you use a tach generator + resolver for absolute position,
speed, and load encoding back to the servo CPU there's no need for
glass right? I'm no motion control expert and I didn't see anything
resembling a glass encoder inside the box housing the resolver and
home/end of travel micro switches. Only other attachment to the
servomotor is the tach generator.

I dunno, because I don't know enough about electronics to understand
what you just said. Have no idea what kind of machine you're working on
or how it knows where it is. We had a couple of older CNC milling
machines for a decade or two, and oil and even chips found their way
down into the linear encoders. We had to take them apart and clean them
every two years or so.

Yeah ok understood. Google --- cnc resolver --- and you'll see how a
resolver is used for absolute position.

A resolver is a three phase rotating transformer. One stator is fed a
10kz AC waveform. The resolver is attached to the servomotor via a
reduction gear. When the output of the resolver is sent to the
resolver processor (extremely simplified explanation) its waveform is
compared to a clock and converted to a digital serial out then
multiplexed to a parallel out and sent to the servo CPU.

Here is a block diagram of the basic operation

http://www.freepatentsonline.com/7057399-0-large.jpg

Position and speed is the responsibility of the resolver. Motor load
is probably determined via the tach generator, a single phase
generator bolted on the end of the servomotor rotor housing.

BTW this machine is a Bayer Acroloc ES chucker with
Yasnac/Yaskawa/Singer-Kearfott/Bayer/Getty's guts circa 1982.
