This section shows a schematic diagram that displays all resources (ZEC, Broadcasters, and Receivers) and system objects (Sources, Channels, Targets) that relate to this Source and the relationships between the various elements. The diagram also shows relevant data about each object as well as its current status.

### Kabab Menu

To the right of each object name in the diagram, there is a kabab icon you can click on to reveal a context menu for that object:

Note that the items in the menu will change according to object type. The example shown above is the context menu for a source in **Failover Source** and includes an option to **Lock** (or **Unlock**) the source, as well as **Edit**, **Disable**, or **Mute** it.
