Ah I had missed state 5. Hmm would need explicit control for that as well. Not nice...

Perhaps 3 state control (magic number but with channel nums separate)

Idle-state array of <switchtostate, currentstate, highimpedance>

Idle-state array of states to switch to if so set?

Slight nicer than a mess of the two things perhaps?
