What I'm really asking is this: Do the 3024's servo ports send out a standard PWM control signal or serial commands? I want to use some of the spare servo ports to control DC motor controllers. Has anybody done this?

They are standard PWM. though the range of pulse length is a bit wider, adjust the position values to suit your servos or controllers.

A wide range is perfect for controlling motors. Perfect! Thanks for the info.
