The SwitchPath key defines the list of switch pairs and required positions of any switches to be set for the thru measurement.

The value of the SwitchPath key can also be a reference to an already defined path configuration section name, if so the path is taken from the referenced configuration section.

The switch pairs listed in the path do not necessarily have to be controlled by a single MultiSwitch. If the system is part of a complex matrix that has more than one MultiSwitch controller, switches from any controller can be mixed in to the switch path. When the path is set all the switches will be in the required positions.

See the configuration nomenclature for Switch Pairs and Paths.
