Channels on an SD K2 Media Client
On an SD K2 Media Client, the channels are labeled C1, C2, C3, C4. Each channel is
bi-directional, that is, you can designate the channel to any application available on
the system. Once you designate a channel to run a specific application, the channel
remains the designated application until you change it. By default, two bi-directional
channels (C1 and C3) will have the recorder application loaded and two bi-directional
channels (C2 and C4) will have the player application loaded. You can change the
channel’s application in the Channel monitor.
