I realize today that the post that suggested me AndyPugh time ago
comes in handy here ... if you check that post (I'll pass the link ...
https://forum.linuxcnc.org/41-guis/36920-labview-ui-project-for-linuxcnc?start=0
 ) you will find a Lord who interfaces labview to linuxcnc and
encounters problems of interpretation of the arrays .... the problem
of interpretation derives only from the fact that this is not
documented and it would take a lot of time to read and reconstruct the
Lcnc file tree to understand the journey of the arrays .... so he uses
the experimental method and tries ... try until he understood. I think
it will be useful to you too.

I on my behalf went through this system of sending and receiving
strings from NML:

    const char * nmlfile = "/home/bkt/linuxcnc-dev/configs/common/linuxcnc.nml";
    RCS_STAT_CHANNEL * stat = new RCS_STAT_CHANNEL (emcFormat,
"emcStatus", "xemc", nmlfile);
    RCS_CMD_CHANNEL * cmd = new RCS_CMD_CHANNEL (emcFormat,
"emcCommand", "xemc", nmlfile);

Unfortunately there are not many other systems to communicate with the
realtime part of Lcnc .... or steps for these arrays or for qtvcp (or
glade which is not qt but gtk).
