Destination Protect
X, M
This button is a toggle that sets or clears a protect on the current destination device. The
protect can be removed at the panel that originally set the protect, at any panel that has
the same user ID, or by a forced release at any panel.
Unless your panel is configured for forced release, you cannot unlock or unprotect a
destination locked or protected by someone else. The display will show "NotOwner" briefly.
You cannot take a source to a protected destination if someone else protected it. The
display will read "Protect" and show the user's name. However, you can take a source to a
protected destination if you protected it or it is protected at another panel that has your
user name. Doing so does not remove the protection.
Locks and protects apply to the currently selected destination in limited X-Y mode. They are
not available in multi-destination mode.
When you protect a destination, the 'Destination Protect' button goes high-tally green. Any
'Destination Lock' button remains unaffected. Note that you cannot protect a locked
destination.
Protects can apply to selected levels in limited X-Y mode.
The NV9605 provides no explicit indication, during operation, whether a destination is
locked or unlocked.
Free Source
X, M
The button selects a pre-defined phantom device that can be used to release or "free"
devices on the data (machine control) level. A free source is also used with tielines to free
the tieline for others to use. The actual free source used is defined in the NV9000
configuration.
Use this button as if it were a source button.
Hold
X
The button is a toggle; press it once to place the panel in "hold mode. " Press it again to
cancel "hold mode. " (The panel might or might not be configured to power up in hold
mode.)
In limited X-Y mode, this button retains breakaway levels after a take.
In limited X-Y mode, this button allows you to perform a gang (or "dub") switch. In hold
mode, destination selections are cumulative, and not mutually exclusive. See
page
30.
The 'Destination' field of the display shows the most recently selected destination under
hold mode.
The button definition has no fields to configure.
Level
X
The button selects a level.
The button exists only when your panel is configured for limited X-Y mode. Presumably, it
will have several level buttons, one for each level you need to control.
