Hi Ben,

I was able to get it to compile and it seems to be working now.  I think there may have been another compilation error somewhere after retyping it out from scratch.  I still need to understand more about the section on when to use monitor vs.  explicit pvget().  I assume the when() block only runs once when a state transition happens is that correct?

Thanks,
Adam

Could you post the declaration of voltage? Is it of type string? Does it have a monitor statement attached?

Cheers
