Assigning one channel per label may be handy in some applications. This is illustrated in chapter 7 of the HP 16510B Getting Started Guide. Also, you can assign a channel to more than one label, but this usually isn’t desired.
Labels may have from 1 to 32 channels assigned to them. If you try to assign more than 32 channels to a label, the logic analyzer will beep, indicating an error, and a message will appear at the top of the screen telling you that 32 channels per label is maximum.
Channels assigned to a label are numbered from right to left by the logic analyzer. The least significant assigned bit (LSB) on the far right is numbered 0, the next assigned bit is numbered 1, and so on. Since the maximum of 32 channels can be assigned to one label, the highest number that can be given to a channel is 31. Although labels can contain split fields, assigned channels are always numbered consecutively within a label. The numbering of channels is illustrated with the figure below.

4Pod Threshold Each pod has a threshold level assigned to it. Threshold levels may be defined for Pods 1, 2 and 3 individually, and one threshold for Pods 4 and 5. It doesn’t matter if Pods 4 and 5 are assigned to different analyzers. Changing the threshold of either pod 4 or 5 changes the threshold of the other.
