MCC5500 auxio setup

We are currently setting up a 12 position system and I am having trouble finding a way to make it work like the existing CC2 Gold Elite. In the old CC2 plus, I used option K717 to have four interlocked auxio switches. Then came the Gold Elite with a relay choice of "latching interlocked" auxio relays. Now that is being replaced by the 5500 and I find nothing to give the capability of interlocking switches so if one is selected, the others will release.
Has anyone here had a need to do this and how did you get around it?
Also, if someone was going to ask, the CSDM CD is ver. R02.04.01 which I presume is the current since it was sent here about a month ago.

I am not an Aux I/O expert, but I'll give it a shot. I think if you set it to Type B and have them under the same I/O Name on the General Tab, they should all work in conjunction with each other. Is this determined by an operator's input or an external one?

The function is controlled by the operator to select one of four transmitters around the county depending on where the caller is located. Not a prime channel which is simulcast but rather a LEIN/ wrecker request channel. As luck would have it, about 15 minutes after posting the question here, I came across the control to do it so that problem is solved. Thanks for taking the time to respond.
