Description
Currently we have Inputs 1 - 8 or also known as CH1-CH8, Outputs 1 - 11 or RC1 - RC11 or OUT1 - OUT11, A1 -A11 (though A9-A11 are not connected unless modified)
It would be good to discuss a more consistent naming convention in the software.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the software labels for Inputs 1–8 and Outputs 1–11, then review how CH, RC, OUT, and A channel names are presented; done means a decided naming convention is applied consistently, including the A9–A11 caveat.
