How to use 8 Axis' independantly (B-52 throttles)

CS Staff,

I have 12 axis' (on multiple throttle units) with two different sets for throttles, etc. which I though I could configure together (either within FSX and/or using FSUIPC) to have all eight engines work independantly.  However, I read ...
    "Eight throttles control eight engines.
    Due to MSFS limitations the eight throttles
    combined as four pairs of engines.
    " (Manual2, p.49)

... and am wondering if this means that I can ONLY use four axis' total for the throttles; Is that correct?  Just want to be sure that I don't start creating Throttle profiles (before I've purchased it) when the model doesn't actually support it.

Thank you in advance for the support.

PS: I didn't know if this was considered a "Tech Support" question so, I haven't posted a Ticket yet; however, I will, if you tell me to do so.
  

Thank you very much.&&Sincerely,&&From,&&        James F. Chams&&

Yes, 4

Thank you; I'll leave the other 4 for fuel cut-off or something else useful.

Much appreciated!
