Port Usage
Video Input Port In Disk . The video port number in the video disk that the Harris serial
board port logs into. The video input port number you enter depends on the disk system

communications port. The valid range is from 0 to 16. Default is 1.

controller’s communication port can take control of that video port number. Normally this
should have the same value as the VIDEO OUTPUT PORT if not zero
