AMMRL: Multi-receiver experiments in AUTOMATION?

Hello folks,

We have very recently started upgrading our old NMR spectrometers, and I
am just now getting familiar with the new hardware capabilities (and
idiosyncrasies).
While sitting at the spectrometer, I was able to take full advantage of
the dual receiver capabilities of our new hardware, and I was extremely
pleased at the results I was seeing.
I'd like to make these dual receiver (and in general multi-receiver)
experiments available to users in automation, but my first attempt to do
so failed.

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with setting up
multi-receiver experiments in IconNMR on a NEO console.
Can you please share your experience?

The issue seems to be related to the fact that the dual receiver
experiment will automatically create two datasets: the first is the
"parent" where I imagine the actual experiment is happening and the data
from the first receiver is stored.  The second dataset is the "child"
and you can think of it as simply the place where the data from the
second receiver is stored.
IconNMR seems to create the two datasets just fine.  But they fail to
run because the "parent" dataset seems to think that you are trying to
operate in single receiver mode, and the "child" dataset doesn't know
how to identify the "parent" dataset.

For your reference, we have NEO consoles, and are running TopSpin 4.0.6
and 4.0.7 with IconNMR 5.1.
So far, I've tried this on our 500MHz system, equipped with a BBFO-SMART
probe.

Thanks,
Bob,.
