Add additional Amount to an open payment channel, and optionally update the expiration time of the channel. Only the source address of the channel can use this transaction.
Added by the [PayChan amendment][].
Channel
String
Hash256
The unique ID of the channel to fund, as a 64-character hexadecimal string.
Amount
Amount
Amount to add to the channel. Must be a positive amount.
Expiration
Number
UInt32
(Optional) New Expiration
time to set for the channel, in [seconds since the Ripple Epoch][]. This must be later than either the current time plus the SettleDelay
of the channel, or the existing Expiration
of the channel. After the Expiration
time, any transaction that would access the channel closes the channel without taking its normal action. Any unspent Amount is returned to the source address when the channel closes. (Expiration
is separate from the channel's immutable CancelAfter
time.) For more information, see the PayChannel ledger object type.

field does not exist.
tecNO_PERMISSION

tecUNFUNDED

temBAD_AMOUNT
The Amount
field of the transaction is invalid. The amount cannot be zero or negative.
temBAD_EXPIRATION

field is invalid.
