Device Name Button
The Device Name button becomes available to you once certain applications are
open; it enables you to define a new device selection list or to choose from the
current device selection list. The Device Name button consists of two parts: the
actual button and a static field showing the name of the current selected device.
When you choose Device Name, a dialog box similar to the one shown in
Figure A-1 appears.
Figure A-1. Device Selection List Dialog Box
This dialog box enables you to select devices from the device selection list. This
dialog box also enables you to add devices to the current selection list, delete
devices from the current selection list, and clear all devices from the current
selection list (making the device selection list empty).
Selecting a Device from the Device Selection List
With the current device selection list displayed (see Figure A-1), you can select a
device either by typing a device name in the Enter Device field or by clicking on
one of the devices in the selection list. Choose OK to confirm your device
selection. All operations performed in the currently open window will affect this
device.
You also have the option of typing in the name of an existing device not in this
list. Once you choose OK, the new device is entered into this selection list and all
operations performed in the current window affect this device. If you attempt to
enter the name of a device that does not exist in the network, you will receive an
error message.
