Hey Viesturs, I have successfully done this twice, its fairly simple. I would be more than happy to help you through it. Including a homing process. I would suggest only using glade for the User Interface, not to handle any time based commands. Found this out very quickly. Its really easy to write a hal component using halcomp and attach the python handlers to those i/o pins you create. If you would like to schedule a time to chat. Please let me know. I have been dealing with some family problems as of late, and has cut down on my IRC time. But these issues should be resolved quickly
