The user interface is a little bit blurred. As is now I try separate out signals for EDM generator in separate *.hal file similar as for spindle.
Output signals: edm.t.Off edm.t.On edm.u.Ionization edm.u.Sparc Input signals: edm.u.Open edm.u.Seat edm.i edm.ionizationCnt edm.sparcCnt I guess arithmetic average since last time are useful for the analog values and number of counts since last time for the counters. Internally SI-units make sense. I am not totally sure what signals are useful and hope you or someone else could provide some help here?
