This object is a software construct that must be associated with a physical Multiplexer before it is useful.
Similar to class PSTAT objects, a Mux object does not need to be associated with specific Multiplexer hardware when MUX.New() is called. If a system contains more than one Multiplexer, the user can select among the available Multiplexers in the Setup() function's dialog box.
The associated Multiplexer is identified by a MuxNo variable.
