Yes, this is what the fractional setting is for. You must configure the
lineX on the PM for fractional and setup the groups (i.e. where you would
specify 12 channels to be used). There is a section in the manuals on
doing this, and possibly a technote (not 100% sure about the latter).

Most of these are documented in the 3.7 ComOS release notes (or 3.7.2,
don't recall exactly at the moment).

DO NOT run 3.8b15 unless you are specifically aware of the reasons why you
should (or should not) run it. It is Beta software and is intended for
non-production boxes, unless you are very comfortable with everything.
3.7.2c3 is the ONLY official release.
