Hi. When running the example codes in the dephy folder, measurements related to the motor are also recorded in the DataLog folder. A few questions:

1- What is sys\_time?

2- What is state\_time?

3- Is it possible to retrieve the voltage command in the inner loop of the motor? The closest thing I could find is the Q-axis voltage measurement (motor\_volt) but I believe this also includes the back EMF.
