Section 5: Switching and scanning
Include multiple channels in a single scan step
Through the remote control interface, you can use scan.addimagestep to combine a list of
channels into a scan step.
The following example creates five scan steps with the indicated channels.
scan.create()
scan.addimagestep("1006,1007")
scan.addimagestep("1010,1011")
scan.addimagestep("1012,1013")
scan.addimagestep("1014,1015")
