Multiple VCS clusters

Note that this page does not apply if the VCS is using the
user account data; in this case, user accounts are maintained through TMS.
Users are not allowed to delete or change the address of their principal devices; they can only change the
Device name. This is to stop users from unintentionally changing their basic FindMe configuration. Principal
devices are also used by the VCS to decide which FindMe name to display as a Caller ID if the same device
address is associated with more than one account.
The page lists all of the devices currently associated with the selected user. The Principal device column
indicates each device's current status as a principal device or not.
To set devices as a principal device, select the box next to the required devices and click Set as principal
