Info Control Panels
The Info control panel is available for all device types. The Info panel includes device
identification information such as a label, a short label, the device type, comments, source ID,
config status, frame, and slot. You can display the Info panel from the device control panel, or
you can right-click a device in iControl Solo and then click Show info control panel from the
shortcut menu.
From the Info panel, you can change the name of the selected device and type comments. By
default, the device name takes the type identification; however, you will find it helpful to
rename devices using meaningful names. Once you change the device name in the control
panel, the new name will be displayed in iControl Solo, making the device easier to locate.
Note: For more information on a control panel, please refer to the
Installation & Operation Guide for the corresponding device.
