Setting Function
EDIT PORT
NAMES
To help remember which computer is attached to a particular port,
every port can be given a name. This function allows the Administrator
to create, modify, or delete port names. To Edit a port name:
1. Click the port you want, or use the Navigation Keys to move the
highlight bar to it, then press [Enter].
2. Key in the new Port Name, or modify/delete the old one. The maxi-
mum number of characters allowed for the Port Name is 12. Legal
characters include:
All alpha characters: A–Z*
All numeric characters: 0–9
+ - / : . and Space
*Case does not matter; the OSD displays the Port Name in all
capitals no matter how they were keyed in.
3. When you have finished editing, press [Enter] to have the change
take effect. To abort the change, press Esc.
RESTORE
DEFAULT
VALUES
This function is used to undo all changes and return the setup to the
original factory default settings (see OSD Factory Default Settings,
page 74)
– except for the Names settings that were assigned to the
Ports, which are saved.
CLEAR THE
NAME LIST
This function clears the port name list.
ACTIVATE
BEEPER
Choices are Y (for Yes), or N (for No). When activated, the beeper
sounds whenever a Port is changed, when activating the Auto Scan
function (see F7 SCAN, page 42), or an invalid entry is made on an
OSD menu. The default is Y (activated).
