Device characteristics which can be configured include:
• Device Name
• Backup Device
• Node Name
• Device Type
• Port Number
• File Size (in lines)
• Use ETX/ACK Protocol

2.8.3.1.1 Device Name
The Device Name is an 11-character alphanumeric string used to identify the printer or file. To enter or
change the device name, click the Device Name entry box. Enter the name to be used for the device.
Spaces cannot be included in the device name. Each device name on the network must be unique in
order to avoid confusion; while it is possible to assign the same Device Name to more than one device, this
is not good practice.
2.8.3.1.2 Backup Device
The Backup Device parameter is used to select an alternate device to which messages will be sent in the
event that the primary device fails. To assign a backup device, click the Backup Device button. A list of
available (previously configured) devices will appear. Click on the entry for the device which is to be used

no diagnostic messages will be issued.
