Workflow to manage channel objects
Purpose
The following workflow describes the sequence of high-level tasks required to manage and configure channel objects. This workflow assumes that the physical devices have been installed, commissioned, and discovered, and that the port objects have been configured. See Chapter 8, Device commissioning and management for more information about device commissioning. See Chapter 9, Device discovery for more information about device discovery.
Note: After they are configured, channel objects can be accessed using the equipment navigation tree. See Chapter 3, NFM-P navigation tree for more information about using the equipment navigation tree.
