This function creates a channel pattern and associates it with the specified name.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Function Yes
Usage
channel.pattern.setimage(channelList, name)
channelList
name
Details
If name is used for an existing channel pattern, that pattern is overwritten with the new pattern channel image (if
no errors occur). The previous image associated with the name is lost.
The channel pattern is not created if an error is detected. You can create a channel pattern with an empty
channelList parameter.
Once a channel pattern is created, the only way to add a channel to an existing pattern is to delete the old
pattern and recreate the pattern with the new desired items. Alternatively, include the additional channels in the
channelList with the channel pattern when using.
