Is there away to view the user variables to confirm that the variable has been set. Or confirm that it has been set. Using CNC7 M400 Control

The only way I know of is to echo the value using one of the M200 series code prompts within your g-code program.

Confidence is the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are where they should be.

Depending on your needs, you can also use M120/M121 and M123 to write variable values into a log file, then look at the file contents later.

What CNC7 software version number do you have? The version number is displayed on the F7/Utility screen.

Version 8.22
Im using variables #100-150. Also like to know to see them in order to make sure that they are not being used for something important.

In CNC7 (e.g. v8.22), the static variables are in the CNC7.JOB file.

At a DOS prompt, you can use the CNC7CONV utility, with the "-DJ" option, to display the contents of the CNC7.JOB file. You can also create a Report (F7/Utility -> F7/Report), then look in the resulting CNC7CFG.TXT file.
