Pregunta 1
Q: Tell me about how you'd have to get updates from another team that's gating your work and semi-unresponsive? How do you handle things the other way around when you're the gate?
Q: Do you know about Twinsafe and sync units for Beckhoff?
Q: What sort of version control do you use? (They seemed to like the answer of GIT)

Q: What sort of Ethercat topology do you use? (They're using a star topology with 127 nodes).

Q: How do you architect your PLC code? (I mentioned ISA88 for dividing up the logic and Packml for the state machines)
