I have a Gcode file that runs over 10000 lines.  Its nice to see it running, etc, but can I stop the program at say line 4231, and restart it from there,   or load the program and run it from line 500.   With my present CAM software, I cant even see the code  being processed.

If you know ahead of time where you'd like for it to stop, you can put an M1 in the code at that point.
Enable M1 Optional Stop on the Run screen.
The code will stop there, then resume when you hit Cycle Start.

Or, RFH will start where ever you choose.
Like TP says, a search will reveal lots on the subject.
