I just purchased a used Universal Instruments Boardflo conveyor model 5363. It looked like it would be perfect to connect 2 of my Quad 4c machines in line. it came with a SMPI to Smema converter box. I connected the box S1PL and S2PL to what I beleiv

Are the drive motors DC? Reverse polarity on the motors and switch your photosensors on the entry and exit end. You might have to play with the SMEMA connections a bit, but you'll figg it out. ;)
