Set64rs-Adaption-Of-MultiChannel-Software-Channelization

    '----------- Channelization Array Variables ------------
    

Public N_Channels As Integer '-- this is setup for Anafaze > tells how many channes are "installed" in the form of 2,4,8,16,32.

'-- glbNumberOfChannels = 64 '--for set64rs > maximum possible > below 32 is used because 32 is max for anafaze

   '-- any way to set N_Channel before the declarations below? > Use const

'-- glbChannelNumber = operational channel at any given time '-- glbChannelMap( 1 to N_Channels ) = map of channel number versus modbus address: 1 - N_Channel , addr '-- In operation the temperature components will use the same arrays '-- the control timer executive will be modified to access more than one modbus address

   '-- anafaze > uses just 1 address and loads the entire arrays > array load happens in driver
   '-- set64rs > uses multiple addresses > each use of driver only loads 1 array element >
       '--thus requires multiple calls by the executive control timer loop -OR- a routine in the driver to fill the arrays > do there!
