Rename ports

After you create ports in the OI Server Manager, it may be necessary to rename them to work with your client applications.

Change an existing port object name

1. In the OI Server Manager, expand the Communication Driver hierarchy tree to display the target port object node you wish to rename.

2. Select and right-click the port object’s name (or press the <F2> key). Click Rename.

3. Type the new name and press Enter.

   Note: Changing the port name prevents clients from registering data using the old name. Data for existing queries is set to bad quality. It is recommended not to make changes to parameters like the Port name after you develop a large client application.
