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 15. Legal

characters include:

 All alpha characters: a–z; A–Z

 All numeric characters: 0–9

 + - / : . and Spacebar

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 68)

– except for the Names settings that were assigned to the

Ports, which are saved.

CLEAR THE

NAME LIST

This function clears all Port Names.

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 47); or an invalid entry is made on an

OSD menu. The default is Y (activated).
