Hi Nat.

FYI The T2X box is designed to run an AC motor, while the Tic box is
designed for a 24VDC motor.
Feed back for position on both rotors is via a 500 ohm potentiometer.

You could make a box with two 24v DC relays and a transformer to do what you
want. But the best answer is to use the rotor EZ by Idiom Press. It would be
much easier to achieve, and give better results.
