Receiver Channel Numbering
Each receiver channel is numbered from 1 to 82 in thestatus viewer display.
In Wireless Studio version 4.2 and earlier, the numbering
displayed in each page of the status viewer was
independent and not related to each other.
In version 4.3x and later, if the same receiver channel isregistered to multiple pages, it will be assigned the same
number in each page.
For example, if receiver channel A is registered to [Page1], the number assigned to receiver channel A in the [Alltuners] page will also appear on [Page-1].
This allows you to manage receiver channels by their
numbers.
Example: When receiver channels 5 to 8 areregistered to [Page-1]
When monitoring four receivers, each receiver channel
will be numbered from 1 to 8.
Note

The numbers will not appear on [Page-1] to [Page-6] until
you display the receiver channels.

When you register a receiver channel to [Page-1], it will beassigned the same number as on the [All tuners] page.
