Yes I think MDI is the right way to do these kinds of setup commands. Isn't it just emcCommandWaitDone() that you need? But if your code can't just sit there waiting, you have to get fancier. halui has some complexity in it because it wants to wait for the mdi to complete, but also wants to continue polling the inputs, so for instance the user can abort the move. You might look at halui for ideas.
