in the sequence editor when you assign the channels to the sequence, just assign and 16 of your 32 channels and the sequence will only send out commands to those channels only. If a channel is not used, it is off.

Just a technicality. All commands in the sequence are sent to ALL connected controllers. The controllers will simply ignore commands that are not meant for it.

The previous questions are fine but I just want to dig a little deeper. Per your question, I am a bit concerned that you may not have setup your channel configurations. In the sequence editor you must set each channel to point to a particular UNIT(controller) and a particular PLUG(circuit) on that controller.

Thus when you have a sequence with only 16 channels, you will know which controller it will be directing because the channels will be configured for a particular UNIT ID.... So if your channels are pointing to Unit "01" then the controller with the UNIT ID of "01" will be responding to the command....

Each Unit must have a unique Unit ID that matches the Unit Id defined in the Sequence Editor.
