Hi Rob,

Welcome back.  Thank-you for providing feedback.

Yes, will remove 'driver'.

Sure, will give it a try.

Okay, will remove '-ptp'.  Thanks.

We were hoping to use 'x' to represent a single driver to match the various
part numbers 8A34001, 8A34002, 8A34003, 8A34004, 8A34011, 8A34012, etc.

What should be used instead of 'x'?

Thanks,
Vincent
