Show common parameters
- Connector: A unique hardware identifier created by the system. To change the connector, remove the channel and re-add it using the correct connector.
- Name: The channel name must be unique and contain valid characters (invalid characters are single and double quotes, '\', '@', '#', '&', '<', '>').

- Collect: Select the Collect checkbox to write the channel data to the SIE data file during a test run.
- Measurand: Enter an optional measurement type.
- Data type: The format of the channel data output.
- Hardware interface: Value is CAN for CAN inputs.
- Bit rate: Only applicable for CAN inputs. Set the bit rate from the drop-down list of valid values. If the CAN bit rate is changed, all channels on the same port are changed to the same bit rate value automatically.
- Termination: Only applicable for CAN inputs. Set the state of the internal termination resistor to true or false. If the termination state is changed, all channels on the same port are changed to the same state automatically.
- AUX port mode: Value is eDAQ sync for AUX inputs.
