To delete a channel pattern called mychans:
channel.pattern.delete("mychans")
Query a channel pattern for associated channels and analog backplane relays.
channels = channel.pattern.getimage(name)
name: A string representing the name of the channel pattern to query.
channels: A string listing channels & analog backplane relays represented by name.
An error will be generated:

If the channel pattern does not exist.

A channel is specified.

An analog backplane relay is specified.
The returned string lists the channels in the SCCC or SRCC format (even if a channel
pattern was used to create it). Requests for multiple channel patterns will be delimited
by a semicolon, however, commas will delineate the specific channels for a single
channel pattern in the string.

print(channels)  4001,4002,4003,4004,4005
To query the channel pattern called myroute:
channels = channel.pattern.getimage("myroute")
print(channels)  2001,2003,2005
To query channel patterns called myroute and mychans in a single call:
channels = channel.pattern.getimage("myroute,
mychans")
print(channels) 2001,2003,2005;4001,
