HAL Question

Code:

net ohmic:power <= ohmicsense.power-on net ohmic:power => hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.output-01

As I said its a work in progress I rushed out in an unsupported post on the forum becasue you guys had bought a THCAD based on my recommendation and had problems with a water table when it had never been developed on one.

The original suggestion from PCW was just to turn it on when you turned the machine on but I don't think thats a good idea where water is involved and switching the DC side introduced additional components to the sensing circuit which was undesirable

Code:

net plasmac:ohmic-enable plasmac.ohmic-enable => ohmicsense.is-probing

so try

Code:

net ohmic:power <= plasmac.ohmic-enable net ohmic:power => hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.output-01

YOu could use his example but you'd need to delete/comment out a couple of unlinkp's

The first line creates a signal. Think of this as a wire.
The second line connects the wire to a physical input

Think of HAL components as being electrical components on a circuit board

Thats kinda how I think of it, but I find it easier to read if it is on one line like, create a signal from output to input.. to more inputs if required.

Code:

net signal_name from_output => to_input to_another_input ..
