* For the Dual- and Quad-Load Modules there is a different numbering scheme for “channel” parameter of ther LoadSwitch routine:
N9377A: [ch]chld (channelNr+loadNr) where channel number (ch) can range from 1-16 and load number (ld) can range from 1-2
N9378A: [ch]chld (channelNr+loadNr) where channel number (ch) can range from 1-24 and load number (ld) can range from 1-4
N9379A: [ch]chld (channelNr+loadNr) where channel number (ch) can range from 1-48 and load number (ld) can range from 1-2
** For the N9377A Model there is an additional differential amplifier integrated for the current sense measuremnt. By adding 128 to the
relay channel number the differential amplifier will be switched on. So the “channel” parameter can range between 1-16 and 129-144.
