Title: Viewing #var values
Post by: BR549 on May 06, 2014, 01:03:10 AM

Is there anyway to view a #var value ? or a system #var for that matter. Can the Value be written to the status bar ??

In mach3 we had a Var monitor and I had a VarValue report I could run to check on things.

Can we generate a #3000 error in Mach4 and it stop the program with message ? or feedhold?

Just a thought, (;-) TP

You can make a screen page (or even a tab) that displays any G code var you want.  But I am working on a G code var plugin that will pop a floating window up much like the Diagnostics windows for mcRegFile and mcModbus.  Where you can "pin it" as always on top or not.

And I'm working on the #3000 stuff.  Just trying to get the more pressing issues looked at first.
