When selected the attached pumps are operated individually. I.e.
volumes; dispense signals; calibration values etc. has to be sent to
each pump.
Parallel mode
Parallel mode requires that all pumps not disabled are of the same

In parallel mode the virtual pump 0 is used to hold common
parameters for all the enabled pumps.
In parallel mode the common data are:
• Volume
• Pump speed
• Acceleration
• Tube size
• Density
If parameters are sent to a pump different from pump 0, there is
