Channel numbers are determined by the slot position on the unit and the terminal
position of the module installed in that slot.

is 32.

Channel Range

Represents the consecutive channels of the same channel type.
It is specified using the channel type, start channel number, and end channel

number.
If the end channel number is less than or equal to the start channel number, it is

considered a single channel specified by the start channel number.
The channel type may be omitted.
