Each VM has up to 16 inputs and there might be more than one VM.
Assuming an example of 2 VMs, and channels 5 and 6 in first VM have pre-
scalar of 2, while channel 2 in the second VM has pre-scalar of 3 and
channel 11 has pre-scalar of 2, the alternative was to do something like
this:
vm-pre-scalar-0=[01 01 01 01 01 02 02 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01];
vm-pre-scalar-1=[01 01 03 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 02 01 01 01 01];
Most of the inputs are 01, which are anyway the default.
I don't see a difference in decoding complexity between the different
approaches but if you prefer this I'll modify my patches.
