Is it possible to run something in the plc from a macro?
I guess what I am asking is if I have the plc look for a setting to do something else at that time.
Somewhat like Daz used in his video about homing workaround.

Define PLC.

There is the PLC script in the screen.

You could also have a physical PLC attached.

There is also the PMC objects in the screen which are generated an awful lot like physical PLCs ladder.

Sorry I should have been more informative.
I am talking about the PLC Script in Mach4

Ok, so you want something in the PLC script to run when something in a macro happens?

If so, have the macro change the value of a register. Have the PLC watch that register and when it equals whatever you set it to in the macro do your thing. And at the end of that thing set the register back to what it was before the macro changed it or the next time the PLC script runs it will do that thing again.

Macros and screen scripts are in completely different chunks. The only thing both can see are registers.

Great
I will work on it
