Set Pattern Replication Method

This parameter is configured to support 12 different methods of extending 

the Keyframe pattern over the length of all pixels controlled by a CPP driver.  

The first 4 methods are currently assigned.  The remaining 8 methods are not 

yet designed, and selecting one will default to method 1 (Incremental).

A Replication Method is always active.  When using a 170 pixel keyframe, 

replication will apply from the 171st pixel through to the 500th.  Data for all 

500 pixels is always there, regardless of how many real pixels are connected.
