@deffn Command channel-stop chan
Freeze a source- or sink-configured channel so that it stops responding 
to signal transitions from the circuit.  
Stopped channels will not log data nor assert expected values
because they may be in a transient state.  
A channel can be unfrozen by @command{channel-release}.  
@end deffn
