They use a rs-485 serial connection.
I have a python program to communicate with them.

Looking at the source code pncconf actually sets maxacc and maxvel to 0
during the test. but that should make the test possibly worse not better.

specified for the parallel port.
Matthieu.
Yes this is a confirmed bug.

Do you have an emc_stat widget in the glade file?
