    Looking for software/hardware package to control Solenoids/Actuators

    Question: FE Review Manual Edition (FERM vs FERM2)

    Hi all, I am wanting to get ready again for the FE test. I bought the FERM by Lindeburgh a while ago and it is edition #1. It looks like there is a 2nd edition out. Do I need to upgrade to this one, or will the 1st edition work?. What are the differences? Are they significant? I am taking...
