After you have created and addressed a channel, you need to open it to begin the process of attaching the software channel to a physical channel.

For example:

<tabber>
Python=<syntaxhighlight lang=python>
ch.openWaitForAttachment(5000);
</syntaxhighlight>
|-|
Java=<syntaxhighlight lang=java>
ch.open(5000);
</syntaxhighlight>
|-|
C#=<syntaxhighlight lang=cSharp>
ch.Open(5000);
</syntaxhighlight>
|-|
C=<syntaxhighlight lang=c>
Phdiget_openWaitForAttachment((PhidgetHandle)ch, 5000);
</syntaxhighlight>
</tabber>

''In Java and C# <code>open()</code> is overloaded. In other languages, you would use <code>openWaitForAttachment(5000)</code> to perform the same function.''

The <code>openWaitForAttachment()</code> function will hold the program until a Phidget channel matching the one you specified is attached, or the function times out. There is a similar function called <code>open()</code> that will do the attachment process in the background, and allow your program to continue before the channel has been attached.

The <code>open()</code> and <code>openWaitForAttachment()</code> functions only begin the process of matching the channel handle you created to a channel of a Phidget device, and do not actually ''open'' the Phidget itself. An open channel that does not match any Phidget channels at first can still attach to a matching channel that is plugged in long after it was first opened.
