Wiring an unknown hydraulic solenoid directional valve

My goal is to re-wire a salvaged hydraulic system and use it for my own purposes. The hydraulic components were originally connected to a control board, which I would like to bypass. I have successfully required the pump motor, and I believe the only thing left to do is re-wire the directional valve. I do not know what power supply to use.

Thing runs off solenoid valves. They're the back cylinder things under the valve body the wires run too. They should have a dataplate or sticker telling you if they're ac or dc and what voltage they operate at.
>>
If they're missing the sticker/plate best way to find out is hook up the controller to power and probe their outputs to find the correct polarity, current and voltage to run them at. Alternatively you can use the googles to look up replacement parts for the unit and specs for said parts.
>>
Final thought, If the controller board works you should reuse it. It will have the proper power supply, drivers, isolation, signal biasing and amplifying, and filtering for that system. All you have to do is remove the PIC brain and replace it with an arduino or other controller of your choosing.
