    Monitor a user-created GCode variable in CNC-Lite

    I create a variable in GCode: {CURNT_ROW=1}
    I would like to monitor its value while single-stepping thru my program.
    The Diagnostic window allows me to monitor (what I think are system ) variables, by entering a number - not a name.
    It doesn't seem to allow me to enter my 'CURNT_ROW' variable by name.

    Ideas?

    Steve,

    In the CNC Lite version you could set your user named variable to an internal variable and display it in the watch window or else display the variable in your program in the TIMER.FIL file constantly in a Display box

    !\1={CURNT_ROW}:MESSAGE My Varbiable \1

    Or else a Display or set to watch \1
