Channel identifiers
The channels on the matrix cards are referred to by their slot, bank, row, and column numbers:
•
Slot number: The number of the slot in which the card is installed.
•
Bank: The bank number, if used by your card. See your card documentation.
•
Row number: The row number is either 1 to 8 or A to Z. See your card documentation.
•
Column number: Always two digits. For columns greater than 99, use A, B, C and so on to
represent 10, 11, 12, ...; the resulting counting sequence is: 98, 99, A0, A1, ..., A8, A9, B0,
B1, ...
