This allows the operator to select the Mode for the modem, either Internal or
External, by selecting the appropriate button.

• (SNM-1010/1010L) Always set to Internal mode, there can be only

one channel; the Add button will be disabled, and no additional
channels can be added.

• (SNM-1000) When the node is set to External mode, up to 30 channels

with addresses from 1 to 30 can be added to a node, and they will all
be displayed on the Channels list portion of the Node window.

When a Node is enabled, its mode cannot be changed; i.e., from Internal to External.
