sserial_port_0=0000xxxx should be fine since the 7I76x2 config has
1 sserial port with 4 channels:

chan0 7I76 #0 field I/O
chan1 7I76 #0 expansion connector
chan2 7I76 #1 field I/O
chan3 7I76 #1 expansion connector


the first 7I76 inputs will be like this:

hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.input-xx

the second 7I76 inputs will be like this:

hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.2.input-xx


this is hm2_card.cardnumber.remotedevice.port.channel.pin
