The authors present a definition of discrete channel surfaces in Lie sphere geometry, which reflects several properties for smooth channel surfaces. Various sets of data are associated with this notion that may be used to reconstruct the underlying particular discrete Legendre map. As an application, they investigate isothermic discrete channel surfaces and prove a discrete version of Vessiot's theorem (Theorem 4.5). The paper is organized in four sections containing the following aspects: Introduction (smooth channel surfaces and problems with the discretization, preliminaries, discrete Legendre maps), Discrete channel surfaces (Lie geometric characterization of discrete channel surfaces, Möbius geometric properties of a discrete channel surface, a discrete channel surface as the envelope of a sphere curve, discrete Dupin cyclides), A channel surface from two prescribed curvature lines, Discrete isothermic channel surfaces (discrete surfaces of revolution, cylinders and cones, Vessiot's theorem, Examples). Other works of the auhtors directly connected to this topic are: the first author's book [Introduction to Möbius differential geometry.
