I read the diagram and EMCTASK is connected by NML: First step would be to get it to work again. Second to move lower parts to micro controller.
Then lower parts are on micro controller there is no need to care about real time perfomance in GUI. Are all NML communication paths via NML-over-TCP? Only downwards? Only upwards?
