Assigning target device names

Use the Names dialog box to identify target devices by name rather than by port number. The
Names list is always sorted by port order. You can toggle between displaying the name or the EID
number of each IQ module, so even if you move the target device to another port, the name and
configuration will be recognized by the switch.
NOTE: When it is initially connected, a target device will not appear in the Names list until it is powered up. Once
an initial connection has been made, it will appear in the Names list even when powered down.
To access the OSCAR interface Names dialog box:
1. If the OSCAR interface is not open, press
2. Click Setup - Names to open the Names dialog box shown in Figure 3.14.
