Configuration do's and don'ts
The do's and don'ts described within this section are general valid for the PRAESENSA system
configuration.
3.4.1
Use of characters
All Unicode characters can be used when entering names for devices, inputs, outputs, zones,
zone groups, etc.

3.4.3
Initial values
<None>: When the value of a parameter of a configuration item is <None>, the parameter has
no value yet. For example, when the Action definition page of a Call definition is opened for
the first time, the value in the Call definition field is <None>.
<Unknown>: When the value of a parameter of a configuration item is <Unknown>, the correct
parameter has to be selected before it is set. For example, when a device is added to the
system composition, the value in the Hostname is <Unknown>.
<Default>: When the value of a parameter of a configuration item is <Default>, the parameter
is set to its default value. For example, if the audio input of a Call definition is <Default>, the
configured audio input is the microphone of the call station that started the Call definition.
3.4.4
Enable/Disable items (checkbox)

within the complete system configuration (e.g. zone groups must have different names
than zones).

to generate a fault event when a fault occurs.
Disable: If a configuration item is disabled (unchecked/off), the system cannot for
example generate a fault event when a fault occurs.
