panel, you can move coax ports assignments, and define a port to be used as a multiplexer
port, and which physical ports of the multiplexer will be active. All 32 ports supported
by the SCON-22L, and all 16 ports supported by the SCON-20L may be reassigned on
this panel. This feature does not apply to the SCON-25L and SCON-28L models.
It is possible to configure a coax port to be actively looked for in more than one location,
but once a device is discovered by the 2XL, it will stop looking in the other locations
for the same device, as long as the device continues to communicate.
In the example configuration given above, the first 5 ports (physical ports 0-4) have
been defined to support multiplexers with support for 5, 6, 5, 7, and 6 devices respectively.
The next 3 ports (physical ports 5-7) are configured to support individual terminals
(logical ports 27, 28, and 29) that have been remapped to those physical locations. The
remaining physical ports (8-31) are disabled.

Device Profiles are used to define what features and host connections the users have
access to. Up to 32 Device Profiles can be defined, and separate Device Profiles are
required for displays and printers. Note that it is recommended to configure a separate
display profile for StorageTek LMUs. Configuration of the Device Type option
determines whether this profile will be used to define display or printer options. A
description of the options on this panel are described below.
Profile Name
The Profile Name field can be used to describe this profile, and would be desirable if
numerous device profiles are to be defined. This field is optional, and is not referenced
anywhere else in the configuration.
