To use this mode, the E5255A must be installed in the E5250A slots continuously from slot1 (slots 1,2; or slots 1,2,3; or slots 1,2,3,4). To specify a channel, use five digits as shown in Table 5-8,

Table 5-8	Specifying E5255A Channels in Auto Config. Mode
	IV Port Input		One Channel: 5 digits
	Connection	Card Number	Channel Number: 4 digits
	(SMU Input
			Input Port No.	Output Port No.
	Port No.)	(first 1 digit)
			(next 2 digits)	(last 2 digits)
	to SMU1 (1)	0	IV Input: 01	01 to 96
			BIAS Input: 11
	to SMU2 (2)	0	IV Input: 02	01 to 96
			BIAS Input: 12
	to SMU3 (3)	0	IV Input: 03	01 to 96
			BIAS Input: 13

			BIAS Input: 14
	to SMU5 (5)	0	IV Input: 05	01 to 96
			BIAS Input: 15
	to SMU6 (6)	0	IV Input: 06	01 to 96
			BIAS Input: 16
	Card Number:	One digit: always 0.
	Channel Number: Four digits: XXYY.

•XX: input port number.

01, 02, 03, 04, 05, or 06 for IV Input Port. 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, or 16 for BIAS Input Port.

•YY: output port number.

Minimum output port number is 01.Maximum output port number is the total number of output ports for the E5255A blocks connected to the same input port.

For each configured multiplexer, output port number 01 is assigned to first output port of smallest block number on card in the lowest slot number.
