• CREATE: If no patterns have been created, this is the only option that is displayed. Allows you to
create a new pattern.
• OPEN: Opens the channels in the selected channel pattern.
• CLOSE: Closes the channels in the selected channel pattern. These closures are appended to
any channels that are already closed.
• EXCLOSE: Closes the channels in the selected pattern so that the channels associated with the
pattern are exclusively closed. Any previously closed channels are opened.

• RESET: Displays options that allow you to reset the channels in the selected channel pattern to

when channels are reset, they delete patterns that contain them.
