Editing Device and Channel Properties

To save time, you can view and edit Device information, such as
Description, Alias, Timeout seconds, UDP Port, Password, and data
transfer parameters (depending on the Device options) from within
viewLinc (see “Device and Channel Aliases ” on page 26).

modify these properties in viewLinc; however, if your Device is linked to
