See the HALUI docs Jon, then I'd probably make pyvcp buttons, I've done 
similar to that for the align and campy kits. Make the machine move so 
the camera is at the spindle position when the camera is being used as 
an edge finder, then back to the normal position once the alignment has 
been done. Haven't used it a lot, haven't found a really good camera 
yet.
