Assigning target device names
Use the Names window to identify individual target devices by name rather than by port number.
The Names list is always sorted by port order. Names are stored in the CO cable, so even if you
move the cable or target device to another ARI port, the name and configuration are recognized
by the appliance. If a target device is turned off, you will not be able to modify the name of the
applicable CO cable.

Press Print Screen to start the OSCAR interface. The Main window opens.
