Assigning an Engine to a Channel using 2N Redundancy

Assigning an Engine to a Channel using N+1 Redundancy
It is possible to assign the same Engine to several Channels as the Redundant Engine using the N+1 setup. In such environments, several Master Channels are sharing the same Redundant Engine (which helps to save costs). This implies that only one Master Primary Engine can fail at a time.
Go to the Advanced tab.
Activate the Redundancy checkbox.
Select Flexible (N+1).
