I am a mechanical guy trying his first retrofit.  Please no laughing from you electronic people please.
 
1.  Is the KMotion and KFlop user manuals the same document?
 
2.  I am not sure what ADC and DAC mean.  Analog DC and Discrete AC?
 
3.  What output would I use to provide a +/- 10 VDC signal to a servo drive?
 
Thanks for the help.

Hi Chris,
 
#1 Basically Yes.  Most of the software interface and configuration settings are the same for our two controllers.  The difference of course is mostly in the I/O connections.
 
#2 ADC = Analog to digital converter   DAC = Digital to Analog Converter.  See:
 
#3 You would use a DAC output from our Kanalog Board
