The OSA Address Table (OAT) is a component of an OSA feature’s
configuration. An OAT entry defines the data path between an OSA
feature port and an image and device unit address.
The Edit OAT Entries window is invoked from the Panel Configuration
Options window. Figure 1 is a representative
window of an active Display. To choose an action, select an entry
by selecting the radio button next to the entry and selecting an entry
from the Select Action pull down.
