There are three different notations used to control relays: Backplane relay
notation, MUX (multiplexer) channel notation, and Matrix card notation.
To control analog backplane relays for slots with analog backplane relay
channels, use S9BX, where:
S: Slot number
9: Backplane notation designation (always 9 when referencing a backplane
relay)
B: Bank number
X: Analog backplane relay number

To control channels using MUX channel notation, use SCCC, where:
S: Slot number
CCC: Channel number (always use 3 digits)
