+This block will start an XMLRPC server. \
+The server provides access to the run, start, stop, wait functions of the flow graph. \
+The server also provides access to the variable callbacks in the flow graph. \
+Ex: If the variable is called freq, the function provided by the server will be called set_freq(new_freq).
+
+Example client in python:
+
+import xmlrpclib
+s = xmlrpclib.Server('http://localhost:8080')
+s.set_freq(5000)
