choose Enable (to allow hosts on that channel to view ACS-8990) or Disable (to
make ACS-8990 invisible to hosts on that channel).
Configuration changes made in the FC Params menu must be saved to the
ACS-8990 non-volatile memory and ACS-8990 restarted for the changes to
take effect. This is done in the NVRAM menu accessed from the Main menu..
