Host List Configuration
The xDirect scrolls through the host list until it connects to a device listed in the host list table. After
a successful connection, the unit stops trying to connect to any others. If this connection fails, the
unit continues to scroll through the table until the next successful connection.
The host list supports a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 12 entries. Each entry contains an IP
address and a port number.
