— to the destination assigned to the source button. (A source shift button switches between the two sources of the source buttons.) Potentially, all 38 buttons of a NV9602 could be source buttons, each having a unique destination. Thus, at that extreme, a panel in multi-destination mode could represent 38 destinations and give operators the choice of two sources for each destination. -
Page 35: Operation
This chapter is intended specifically for the NV9602 panel operator. Summary As an NV9602 operator, you will be confronted initially with a relatively small and simple panel — 38 buttons with two 8-character displays. The panel’s buttons can have arbitrary legends (using plastic inserts under the button caps). A but- ton’s legend should indicate its function. -
Page 36: Single-Destination Mode
5. Operation Summary Generally, to operate the panel, you choose a destination, (possibly) choose desired breakaway lev- els, and choose a source. Choosing a source for a destination completes the take. This paradigm has slight variations in the different modes. There is no ‘Take’... -

Page 38: Destination Shift
5. Operation Operating Concepts A source shift button toggles all source buttons. Destination Shift Destination shift applies only in ‘Limited X-Y’ mode. Each destination button can represent two destinations. A ‘Destination Shift’ button selects which of the two destinations the destination button will select. (The concept is similar to the shift key or the ‘caps lock’... -

Page 42: Level
5. Operation Operating Concepts Level The button selects a level. The button exists only when your panel is configured for single-destination mode with breakaway. Presumably, it will have several level buttons, one for each level you need to control. You will select one or more levels for a breakaway and then press a source button to complete the take. -
Page 43: Source

Release To remove a lock or protect. Some control panels can lock or protect both sources and destinations. However, The NV9602 pro- vides locks and protects for destinations only. A forced release is when the lock or protect is removed by someone other than the owner. A forced release can be performed: •... -
Page 45: Takes
If your panel has a ‘Hold’ button, you can use it to preserve the chosen breakaway levels after the take. Hold “mode” is active when the hold button is high-tally. When hold mode is inactive, the destination reverts to all levels after the take. NV9602 Control Panel • User’s Guide... -
Page 46: Case 3 - Limited X-Y Mode
There are no destination buttons. Potentially, all 38 buttons of a NV9602 could be source buttons, each having a unique destination. Thus, at that extreme, a panel in multi-destination mode could represent 38 destinations and give operators the choice of two sources for each destination. -

3 Ensure that your data router has been configured as “data forward.” In this mode, the router expects the source (e.g., playback device) to control the destination (e.g., recording device). 4 Cue your playback device. (After the take, you must manually start the playback.) NV9602 Control Panel • User’s Guide... -
Page 48: Performing A Broadcast Take - Limited X-Y Mode
5. Operation Operating Concepts Performing a Broadcast Take — Limited X-Y Mode Follow these steps: 1 Select a destination and route a source to it. The source becomes the master because the router is in data forward mode. This destination is the slave and communicates bidirectionally with the master on the machine control level. -

Page 53: Setup Mode
At this last step, the panel leaves menu mode and returns to normal mode. Setup Mode Setup mode occurs when the NV9602 is disconnected from its network and is freshly powered up. In setup mode, you can set or change the panel ID, identify the software version, and perform a test of the panel’s buttons. - Page 54 Pressing the setup button (i.e., button 25) will terminate the button test and return you to the initial display of setup mode. At this point — if you have a assigned your NV9602 a suitable panel ID — you may connect your NV9602 to the panel network of your NV9000 system.
