Assigning target device names
Use the Names window to identify individual target devices by name rather than by port number.
The Names list is always sorted by port order. Names are stored in the CO cable, so even if you
move the cable or target device to another ARI port, the name and configuration are recognized
by the appliance. If a target device is turned off, you cannot modify the name of the CO cable.
To access the Names window, complete the following steps:
1.
Start the OSCAR interface.
2.
Click Setup > Names. The Names window opens.

If new CO cables are discovered by the appliance, the on-screen list will be automatically updated.
The mouse cursor will change into an hourglass during the update. No mouse or keyboard input
will be accepted until the list update is complete.
