PathFinder Version 4.22 User Guide19.7 Network HandlesOn each matrix database, decide which elements are allowed to participate in networkactivity. At present, these may be• Ports (i.e. Panel or 4-wire ports)• Target Groups (explained in section 19.13)Each element is assigned a unique identification tag called a Network Handle. This isnumeric and may be non-sequential. It is unique within each database but may be repeatedon other matrices within the LAN. Our simple set-up now assumes that only Panel 2, Panel 4and Panel 6 take part in any network activity. Therefore, only these ports need to haveNetwork Handles defined. For simplicity, the example shows Network Handles H2, H4 andH6 applied to these ports. Simply click in the correct row of the Net Assignment column,then type in the numeric value of the Network Handle. As the cursor is moved to anotherfield the icon and graphic shown below will appear. Alternatively, follow the instructions onthe status line to use the F2 key, which automatically assigns the next numerically freeNetwork Handle.Port Type System Name In Label Out Label Network?
