Details for use of non-default port/printer values. The /dev
directory holds device-information files used by the kernel to
access the hardware. When you add an ISI card, you must give the
ISI ports unique names so they do not conflict with existing ports or
with other devices known to your system. If a device name has
already been assigned to an existing device and the operator assigns
that name to a new device, then the existing device will be deleted
when the ISI port using its name is created.
a. To use a non-default base name, type N and then enter a
basename having less than five characters. The base name you

designations will have this form:
[basename prefix][board number][port letter].
basename: Length is one to four characters.
board number: Values will be 1, 2, 3, or 4, depending on
how many ISI cards are installed in your computer.
port letter: For ISIHx-2S/2U, use letters A through D for TAs;
use letters E through H for modems. For ISIHx-4S/4U, use letters
A through H for TAs; use letters I through P for modems. (For
terminal control devices, use lower-case letters as port identifiers.)
Device basename selected: _________________

base name. This prefix identifies each port that supports a terminal

printing). Specify a unique printer base name (printer parameters
are outlined in the Multi_Setup Utility section in this manual ).
