RefChannel 1

Summary

Contains filter data enabling access to selected channels

within the channels collection.
The meaning of this property depends on the

FilterType

property of the Channels collection object:

If the FilterType property is set to

lcaChannelFilterAdjacent, the Channels collection

object will access all channels adjacent—directly

connected by a router—to the channel specified by

RefChannel1.
