If the name is greater than eight characters, the display shows the first eight characters of the assigned name and then scrolls the name to the left to display the remaining characters of the name.

The factory default name is the product name (GSS-100-) plus the last three pairs of the MAC address (see the “Programming Guide“ and “HTML Control and IPL File Manager“ sections to assign a name).

MAC Address display

The read-only MAC Address display shows the hardcoded, factory assigned hardware address.
