Channel Allocation

The next parameter on the front panel menu label is channel allocation. To select this pa-

rameter, release the push-button when the yellow, green and blue LEDs all come on solid.

Note

This parameter can also be changed using the DIP switches or Click Supervisor.

As mentioned earlier, the Click 111 device has sixteen output channels that can be distrib-

uted in various ways betweeen the two buses. This parameter allows you to choose how

many of those sixteen channels each bus should have.

The channels must be allocated in increments of two. So bus 1 could have 16 channels and

bus 2 have 0, or bus 1 have 14 and bus 2 have 2, and so on.
