It may be possible but you wil need to install relevant drivers. In the MR section here there's a tutorial which mentions it I believe.

Well..I do know the emu file I'm using on the MR for Sly Italia can only be loaded by a CAS2. Obviously there's a cost but the CAS2 and add-on seems to have many uses so may be worth a punt for you.

Whoops sorry mate. My wife thinks an emu file is for paring down the claws of an Australian bird.
