The TBM Module Configuration class creates qualified names for the purpose of dynamic mapping. These qualified names are in the format <UID>/<ChannelName>. This ensures all channels have a unique name but because the UID of each module is not easily determined by the user, this can make it difficult to create good pattern matches or know exactly what you have matched to (for instance when you view logged TDMS channels).

I suggested changing the qualify channels.vi under TBM Module Configuration to generate qualified names in the format <ModuleAlias>-<UID>/<ChannelName> which will still ensure unique names but will also make matching to specific modules much simpler and the resulting qualified names much more human readable.
