Adding an Output
Outputs from the Multiplexer can be configured, with appropriate hardware, to be
either IP or ASI.
describes how to add an output on the nCompass Control
Equipment Setup Physical Map.
New devices are added to an exisitng or new map by selecting an icon from the
Device Types list in the right-hand pane, and dragging and dropping a copy into the
map window.
