If you assign a split label as a four-wire [ ] to a Port Viewer, the split label is listed as
both:

• A normal four-wire in the membership list [ ].

• An ident [ ] and a monitor [ ] at the top of the viewer.

Dragging away either the ident or the monitor from the Port Viewer is equivalent to turning off either
the Talk or Listen button on the four-wire (the Talk or Listen button on the four-wire is no longer
displayed, for example ).

Turning off a Talk / Listen button on the four-wire will also result in the ident / monitor disappearing
from the top of the Port Viewer.

If you click the space where the Talk or Listen button was displayed on the four-wire:

• The ident or monitor is restored to the top of the Port Viewer.

• The Talk or Listen button reappears on the four-wire in the membership list.

Tip:

For more information about Talk and Listen buttons, see

4.16 Controlling Talk and Listen buttons.

If you drag and drop a split label as a four-wire into an available / unassigned fixed Port Viewer
[ ], then it is displayed in the same way as any other four-wire.

Tip:

For more information about Port Viewers, see the next section.

4.18 Port Viewers

Port Viewers enable you to visually monitor routing to and from a four-wire port, and also to assign
entities to four-wires (sometimes known as XY routing). An entity can be a four-wire, panel,
telephone, ident or monitor.

In Configure Canvas mode, you can create:

• A pre-populated Port Viewer by dragging to the canvas one of the four-wires

[ ] listed under the palette > four-wires tab.

The target four-wire for the viewer cannot be changed.

• An unpopulated (empty) Port Viewer by dragging to the canvas the Port Viewer icon

[ ] from the palette > Other tab.

To populate the viewer, drag and drop a four-wire to the viewer in Assignment mode. The
target four-wire for the viewer can be changed for any other four-wire.

Tip:

For more information about creating Port Viewers, see 4.11.2 Configure Canvas mode.
