    Heidenhain DPRNT equivalent

    I've a 5 axis mill with iTNC530 and want to be able to view from status monitoring software the value of a variable set in Q99.
    In Fanuc I could DPRNT this out via RS232.

    Is there an equivalent in Heidenhain world please?

    Or. via tcnrmo/tnccmd on a local PC it is possible to view Machine Parameters and other bits of data in the control over Ethernet but I cannot find out if its possible to view a QXX variable.
    does anyone know the syntax to do that?

    Or can I create a Machine Parameter and use it as a variable that tnccmd will view, something like MP99 = Q99 and the MPGET 99 (assuming for the moment that there isn't a machine parameter 99 already existing)

    Hopefully.

    FN16 FPRINT is what you need. You can then set up a TNCCMD script to automatically obtain the value. PM me if you want more details.

    Cutting time and anything else is possible:

    With HEIDENHAIN DNC (RemoTools SDK software development package) you can solve anything...
    In the end, of course, you will realize that you need the StateMonitor application.
