Syntax for Terminal Names

The syntax for terminal names is a unique identifier that refers to a physical terminal in your system. To guarantee the uniqueness of a terminal name across multiple devices, terminal names begin with a forward slash, followed by the name of the device as configured in MAX, such as Dev1. A forward slash and the name of the terminal follow the device identifier, such as PFI3. For example, the fully qualified terminal name for PFI3 on Dev1 is /Dev1/PFI3.
