Within this configuration file, the channels of the connected HDL Buspro devices can be configured.
File location
<WorkspaceDirectory>\DataFiles\xio.Hdl.Channels.dat
Example
HdlDemoCase;1;1;SingleChannel;7 HdlDemoCase;1;3;AcControl;1
Each channel has its own row with the parameters separated by a semicolon. (CSV-format)
The channel definitions can be edited in the NETx Core Server Studio under Modules > HDL > Channel Definitions

| 1 | Interface name | The name of the interface the device is connected to. (As defined in Helvar device definition) | string |
| 2 | Subnet ID | HDL Buspro subnet id of the device. | 0 - 254 |
| 3 | Device ID | HDL Buspro device id of the device. | 0 - 254 |
| 4 | Type | Device type. See list below. | string |
| 5 | Channel | Channel number. See list below. | 0 - 254 / string |
