Viewing variables from ISO macro on Mazak.

Viewing variables from ISO macro on Mazak.

Viewing variables from ISO macro on Mazak.

(OP)
I'm playing with using macros on our Integrex 200Y.
I'm trying to get some complex calculations running in one of our ISO subprograms using different variable values, and it's not working how I'd like.

It's difficult to see what value is in a variable at a given moment, or even at the end of the subprogram.
If I want to check the value of one of these variables I have to add a line in the code to throw it out to the tool offset table. This is a pain.
Does anyone know a simpler way to just quickly display a variable value on the screen?

Well, I found it anyway - there's a page on the control that lets you shortcut to any other..and one of them shows all macro variables.
