It is read every time motion runs - the intention is that it is a fast-acting way to modulate the federate. Possible values are 0.0 (feed hole) to 1.0 (feed at normal rate).
The original target was EDM - adaptive feed would be connected to something that measures spark rate and/or voltage and modulates the feed to maintain the proper gap.
