Is there a way I can access a variable that was set via URScript? In other words, if my robot gets a variable via a socket connection (like via `socket_read_ascii_float()`), I want my URCap program to access that variable and store it in the data model. Is this possible, or would I need to connect the URCap to the socket directly?

Thanks
