I don't know what question this is answering. Everything here is about
channels so it is hard for me to relate it back.
Please reply inline & not at the end of the message to everything :)
Was it meant to answer the following?

If it was a response to this, the reg property only allows 8 channels so
the regex should only allow 8 too. The number after @ must match the number
in reg. If using each of the 16 "pseudo-differential" inputs in
isolation is thing you want to be able to do, your reg property does not
allow it.

With a description, this should be fine.
