Summary
The NV9640 has a "multi-page" user interface. Each of its 30 buttons (illuminated in various
colors and having 3 lines of text) can either (1) execute a function or (2) select another button
page (i.e., present another set of functions). The set of button pages is not limited in size. Panel
operators navigate to different button pages to perform different tasks.
We say that the user interface is tree-structured (or hierarchical) although it is not always a "tree"
in the strictest sense. (You can construct a tree-like graph of the button pages.)
The NV9640, in addition, has an 8×42 alphanumeric display that presents the status of opera-
tions as they occur. An NV9640 panel should be configured with at least one 'Page Up' button
and at least one 'Page Down' button with which the operator can scroll the display.
At the rear of the panel, a DB25 connector supports 8 tally inputs and 4 tally outputs.
NV9000-SE Utilities is the software with which to configure the NV9640. Figure 4-1, following,
shows the default NV9640 panel configuration page from NV9000-SE Utilities.
Adding a Panel to an NV9000 Configuration
You must create configurations for the NV9640 using NV9000-SE Utilities. We assume that you
are familiar enough with NV9000-SE Utilities that you can understand the following material. It
is not difficult material, but some of the concepts might not be familiar to everyone.
It takes only a few seconds to add a new panel configuration.
