This confused me as well, because even though the attributes where
defined as separate for the ALS channel, modifying their values affected
the values from the WHITE channel.
The integration time and the scale affect both channels, and therefore I
thought they should be shared attributes. But in that case, and to avoid
breaking the ABI for the other channel, I will make them separate even
though writing to one of them will change the value of the other as well.
Thanks and best regards,
