5.15 Port function
Each port in a system must be assigned a port function which specifies the port’s intended
use, including what type of device is connected to the port.
The port’s intended use is important as the system treats a port differently if it is connected
to a user panel rather than a telephone interface for example.
The Port Function column displays each port’s functions according to the current
configuration. Each line in this column features a drop-down menu listing the available port
type options.
To set the port function:
1) Click the row for the port.
2) Click the Port Function field. A drop-down menu is displayed.
