-// checkPowerOverload(useProgLimit, trackno)
-// bool useProgLimit: Trackmanager knows if this track is in prog mode or in main mode
-// byte trackno: trackmanager knows it's number (could be skipped?)
-//
-// Short ciruit handling strategy:
-//
-// There are the following power states: ON ALERT OVERLOAD OFF
-// OFF state is only changed to/from manually. Power is on
-// during ON and ALERT. Power is off during OVERLOAD and OFF.
-// The overload mechanism changes between the other states like
-//
-// ON -1-> ALERT -2-> OVERLOAD -3-> ALERT -4-> ON
-// or
-// ON -1-> ALERT -4-> ON
-//
-// Times are in class MotorDriver (MotorDriver.h).
-//
-// 1. ON to ALERT:
-// Transition on fault pin condition or current overload
-//
-// 2. ALERT to OVERLOAD:
-// Transition happens if different timeouts have elapsed.
-// If only the fault pin is active, timeout is
-// POWER_SAMPLE_IGNORE_FAULT_LOW (100ms)
-// If only overcurrent is detected, timeout is
-// POWER_SAMPLE_IGNORE_CURRENT (100ms)
-// If fault pin and overcurrent are active, timeout is
-// POWER_SAMPLE_IGNORE_FAULT_HIGH (5ms)
-// Transition to OVERLOAD turns off power to the affected
-// output (unless fault pins are shared)
-// If the transition conditions are not fullfilled,
-// transition according to 4 is tested.
-//
-// 3. OVERLOAD to ALERT
-// Transiton happens when timeout has elapsed, timeout
-// is named power_sample_overload_wait. It is started
-// at POWER_SAMPLE_OVERLOAD_WAIT (40ms) at first entry
-// to OVERLOAD and then increased by a factor of 2
-// at further entries to the OVERLOAD condition. This
-// happens until POWER_SAMPLE_RETRY_MAX (10sec) is reached.
-// power_sample_overload_wait is reset by a poweroff or
-// a POWER_SAMPLE_ALL_GOOD (5sec) period during ON.
-// After timeout power is turned on again and state
-// goes back to ALERT.
-//
-// 4. ALERT to ON
-// Transition happens by watching the current and fault pin
-// samples during POWER_SAMPLE_ALERT_GOOD (20ms) time. If
-// values have been good during that time, transition is
-// made back to ON. Note that even if state is back to ON,
-// the power_sample_overload_wait time is first reset
-// later (see above).
-//
-// The time keeping is handled by timestamps lastPowerChange[]
-// which are set by each power change and by lastBadSample which
-// keeps track if conditions during ALERT have been good enough
-// to go back to ON. The time differences are calculated by
-// microsSinceLastPowerChange().
