3.5 Creating and editing computer names

Computer names provide a very convenient way of selecting and identifying

computers that are attached to the LINDY Dual/Quad PRO. You can select

computers by port number (see sections 4.8 and 4.16) but when you have several

computers it becomes hard to remember which computer is attached to which port.

By defining descriptive computer names you can select the required computer from

an on-screen menu without having to remember which physical port the computer is

connected to. For each computer name that you define you can grant or deny

access to any of the defined users.

Each computer name that you define will have an associated port number. This is

the LINDY Dual/Quad PRO port that the computer is attached to. If all of your

computers are connected to a single LINDY Dual/Quad PRO then all the port

numbers will be two characters long (for example: 01, 02, 03, 16 etc.). If you are

cascading LINDY Dual/Quad PRO then the port numbers will be four, six or eight

characters long depending upon whether you have two, three or four levels of

cascade (see figure 7). See the end of this section and section 4.10 for an

explanation of how the port numbers are constructed. The LINDY Dual/Quad PRO

supports up to 512 computer names.
