This appendix provides information and procedures to help you customize
your software.
To assign a name to your path and port, use:
SETDefault !<path> -PATH NAme = Ò<string>Ó
SETDefault !<port> -PORT NAme = Ò<string>Ó
For example, to assign the name Floor_1 to path 1 and the name Bldg_1 to
port 1, enter:
SETDefault !1 -PATH NAme = "Floor_1"
SETDefault !1 -PORT NAme = "Bldg_1"
The following restrictions exist for the -PATH and -PORT NAme parameter:
The name string can contain a maximum of eight characters, the first of
which must be alphabetic.
No blank spaces are allowed in the name string. The only
non-alphanumeric characters allowed are the asterisk (
underscore ( ), the period (
_
Names must be unique within their type. For example, a path name
cannot be the same as an existing path name, but it can be the same as
an existing port or virtual port name.
Alphabetic characters are stored and displayed as entered. Names are
not case-sensitive when compared on entry with previously entered
names. For example, port2 and PORT2 are evaluated as the same name.
When you define the name parameter, these error messages may be
returned:
Rejected name - Contains invalid character(s)
Rejected name - Null string not allowed
Rejected name - It is already in use
Rejected name - Must start with alphabetic character
