I think you will need to put it in the ppmc_load.hal file before this line :
addf ppmc.0.write servo-thread The reason is if it is in the wrong place (ie. before the addf pid.xxxx line or after the addf ppmc.0.write line, it will not be executed in the same servo cycle as the read encoders - calculate PID - write to DACs sequence, and will add a delay of one additional servo cycle to the flow of data. This will likely cause the servo to become unstable or at least harder to tune. So,you can't put all the commands in a separate file, or it will be performed AFTER the ppmc.0.write function.
