+For MAX34446, the value of the currX_crit attribute determines if current or
+voltage measurement is enabled for a given channel. Voltage measurement is
+enabled if currX_crit is set to 0; current measurement is enabled if the
+attribute is set to a positive value. Power measurement is only enabled if
+channel 1 (3) is configured for voltage measurement, and channel 2 (4) is
+configured for current measurement.
