To set or change I/O groupings, do the following:

Only inputs can be placed into the input groups, likewise only outputs can be
placed into the output groups.
Grouped inputs only output to the same numbered output group (e.g. in
figure 5-11, input 5 within group 1, only outputs to outputs 1 and/or 4).
