Chassis, Blade, Port, and TTL Selection
The dialog box displays an icon for each port, arranged as they physically exist within the chassis.
The icons change as the selection, availability, and type of each port changes. Ports are shown
individually but have the same status for each port in a port-pair. You can also select
TTL In
and
TTL Out to set actions for external triggering.
Port, Blade, and Chassis Description
When you pass the cursor over a port, blade, or chassis, a “tool tip” displays information about the
port, blade or chassis. Also, if you right-click any port or blade, a
Port Description

menu item appears. Clicking this button or menu option opens a dialog box containing all the
information about that port, blade, or chassis.
