Right-Click on the control/indicator or the node in the wiring diagram
and choose "Create" -> "Local Variable". This will create a node in the
wiring diagram on which you can right-click and change to "Read Local" or
"Write Local". You can use as many of these in your diagram as you like.
Be careful with these, however, since changing their values in code can have
unexpected side effects (race conditions). If you are creating a local
variable from a Boolean, you cannot set the Boolean to "Latch when
released"-- there are ways around this, though.
