channel.pattern.setimage()
Details
Channel patterns are not persistent through a power cycle and are stored when a
setup.save() (on page 13-254) command is executed. Use setup.recall()
(on page 13-253) to restore them.
The following restrictions exist when naming a channel pattern:
The name must contain only letters, numbers, or underscore.
The name must start with a letter.
The name is case sensitive.
Examples of valid names:
mychans, MyChans, Mychans – three different channel patterns, not one
(names are case sensitive)
Path1
Path20
my_chans
path_3
Examples of invalid names:
1path – invalid due to starting with a number
my chans – invalid due to space
My,chans – invalid due to comma
Path1:10 – invalid due to colon
