I think there's only one PRT(1) card that's available for the NEC IPK/Elite. The number of channels that you can "turn on" is dependent on the software version that you have. I think R8000 software series allow you to assign channels individually - always starting at the bottom - and can be increments of 1.
On older software revisions, I think you can only turn them on based on groups of 4/8/12/16/23.
Eitherway, your D-channel will always be 24, and I don't think you can change that anyways.
Maybe some of the NEC guru's can check into this a bit more. The above is from our experience here.
