Slots

Slots are all the InoDrive units on the network including the Target unit. The Target unit’s drive and I/O resources are identified as Local in the User’s Program. The other InoDrive units can be identified to the Target unit by IP address or relative location or hops from the Target units A and/or B network ports.

The InoDrive unit for which you are writing a program for is called the Target and in the Slots Resource listing this slot is pre-defined by default and is named Local. Click the Slots item under the Resources list to view all of the defined Slots. In this example the only one we have is Local.
