+<h3>EasyMultiChannel</h3>

+<h3>EasyMultiDouble</h3>
+<p>This provides support for gets and puts to the value field of multiple channels.
+Each channel must have a value field that is a numeric scalar.
+The client always sees that data as a PVDoubleArray.
+All channels must connect.

+<h3>EasyNTMultiChannel</h3>
+<p>This provides support for gets and puts to the value field of multiple channels.
+Each channel must have a value field.
+The client always sees that data as a NTMultiChannel, which is one
+of the types provided by normativeTypesCPP.
