| Enables/disables UI functionality which is responsible for sending text or voice chat to the given chat channel. If the channel was disabled in [[description.ext]], it can be enabled with this command, however the UI functionality changes will be local to the PC executing this command. What this command cannot do:
|descr= Enables/disables UI functionality which is responsible for sending text or voice chat to the given chat channel.
* It cannot disable incoming text or voice
{{Feature|informative|
* It cannot interrupt own client's transmission in progress
This command:
* It cannot affect any Custom Radio channels, only channels 0-5
* can override [[Description.ext]] or [[Arma 3: Server Config File|server config]]'s channel setting
* It cannot persist, so if user is logged out, the changes are reset
* cannot disable Global channel for the admin or server host, because Global channel is always available for the admin
* It has no effect on chat related scripting commands, such as [[vehicleChat]], [[globalChat]], [[globalRadio]], [[sideRadio]], etc.
* does not disable ''incoming'' text or voice
So in short, just like with [[getPlayerChannel]], this command provides a nice ability to hack into chat UI with some limitations. And the reason why it is possible to disable entire channels (except Group) in [[description.ext]], is because no one can talk or text, therefore no transmission is happening. NOTE: Group channel cannot be disabled, neither with [[enableChannel]], nor with [[description.ext]] param. Channel / Number correspondence:
* actively interrupts (since {{arma3}} v2.02) the current communication in progress
* 0 <nowiki>=</nowiki> Global
* does not affect chat related scripting commands such as [[vehicleChat]], [[globalRadio]] etc.
