# Hints
## Arduino Channels
Arduinos have assigned channels. This channel is selected whe flashing the arduino (Flash Menu).
In Step #3, Channel 0 Corresponds to Channel A, 1 to B, 2 to C, and so forth.

## Available Pins
Do not use Pins D0 and D1, as they are used for serial communication between airmanager and the arduino.
You can use Pins D2 and upwards.

## Default assignment
The Buttons and Encoders have a default assignment, which is loaded when adding the instrument.
Changes to the selection are stored until the instrument is removed from the panel.
It will reset to the default when the instrument is added again.
