I'm sure Rob can give you pointers for defining your system in PyDSTool.
Unfortunately, the current version of VFGEN doesn't handle vector variables
(i.e. you can have variables like x, y, z, but not x[1], x[2], x[3]), so it
looks
like VFGEN is not an option for you.  The next generation of VFGEN will
handle vectors, but it is still under development.

Cheers,

Warren
