A channel of the selected device can therefore not be selected as the destination channel and is therefore not displayed in the “Channels” section. | Select a device that is compatible with the set source channel. Compatible devices |
While loading a channel assignment, the following error message appears: “The channel (1.2.34 – X) is disabled, please enable all used channels first.” | A channel that is used in the channel assignment is disabled. | Re-enable the channel mentioned in the error message in the Device Settings of the device. |

While loading a saved channel assignment, the following error message appears: “Load error – Load channel selection error: at least one device was not found.” | At least one device that is included in the channel assignment was deleted from the ETS project beforehand. | If a backup of the project was created prior to deleting the devices, use the backup copy of the project. If no backup is available, create the channel assignment again. |
