The devices in the Media Pool, i.e. ports and control channels, can be enabled or disabled. This is very helpful for analytical purposes or if you temporarily don't want to use the full number of devices.
Click one category Devices in the Media Pool. If the corresponding device should not be visible, click on the plus sign.
The devices in the Media Pool can be enabled or disabled, by checking (enabling) or unchecking (disabling) them. Enabling and disabling also works for device folders. In this case it affects all devices in the corresponding folder.
It is also possible to enable/disable several devices in one go. Right-click a port or a device folder, select Device Status and the required function. This causes the status of all devices within a folder or for a device port to be altered correspondingly.
