Description
The TC400 agent has a data stream in acq for the error codes read from the pfeiffer TC400 turbo controllers. Currently, the driver reads the error code as a string and also passes it into the data stream as a string. This has made parsing the error code on grafana slightly difficult.
I think we need to update the code so that it also casts the error code as an int so we can display it easily in a new data field.
This can be tested in between satp2 receiving power again and satp2 pumping out with the turbos.
