    Short answer is yes. Look at the documentation on Pyvcp.

    Hello and thanx for the link.

    I actually don`t understand much of this, and it is hard to show me how to do it from the start, and through the installation?

    Robert,

    I will attach a set of configuration files for my router. I have a pyvcp panel and you can see how I did it.

    If you use my files to start emc, you can see what the pyvcp panel looks like. Then you can make some changes to see what does what. Your best bet is to read the info on the wiki site and the info in the Integrator's manual. There are some simple examples.

    Also if you use stepconf to create your own config files, I believe that it gives you the option of having it create the empty files that you need to start.
