    SimTools is able to run 6 as the same time should it be needed.
    Take care!

    6 Interfaces/controllers total.
    If the interface/controller supports 6 actuators, then it will run 36 actuators.
    If the interface/controller supports 1 actuator, then it will run 6 actuators.
    Hope this makes sense man.
    Take care,
