Hi there all!

Welcome back Smokergirl.  Been a while.
Smoking with the digital is the same as the original as far as vent and heat.  I usually use a minimum of 1/4 open.  I just check to make sure no smoke is backing up into the generator.  I you are smoking chicken or jerky and moisture needs to be expelled, you will want the vent open farther.
Kummok's salmon recipe is definately a must if you have not tried it already.

I think you'll find most people will reccomend either alder or apple wood when smoking salmon/fish.  I usually use  2 2/3 hours (8 pucks) of apple with my salmon, but have also gotten good results with the alder also.  Truthfully, I couldn't tell much of a difference between the two different end products.  I guess all those spicy foods over the years have finally taken a toll on my taste buds.  ::)

Kummock's recipe is a must, and so easy.  I think you would have to try really, really, really, hard to mess it up.

With salmon I too use 8 pucks worth, usually alder.  Must say though that I have stopped hot smoking salmon (it is very good) and now cold smoke it exclusively.  Just a matter of preference.

Maple is also a good wood to use. I generally use about 2 hours of smoke.
