During configuration, you can prescribe NV9607 behavior that depends on the tally inputs. What you connect to the tally interface is, of course, up to you. Miranda provides a breakout cable (WC0053) that can be used with the tally connector, as a purchase option. -
Page 18: Modes Of Operation
The panel’s set of button functions varies with the mode. The modes (or behavioral models) are determined at configuration. The operator cannot switch between different modes. The NV9606 control panel can operate as an extension of the NV9607. See the NV9606 User’s Guide for details. Limited X-Y Mode In limited X-Y mode, takes occur from a single source to a single destination (selectable). -

Page 24: Testing
These are points to consider after you install your NV9607 control panel(s): 1 Do the buttons illuminate? When an NV9607 powers up, one or more of its buttons are sup- posed to turn green or amber. Did it pass the panel test mentioned above? 2 When the NV9607 powers up and it is connected to the system controller, it should initialize completely. -
Page 25: Configuration
This chapter addresses configurers. Operators and other persons not interested in NV9607 configu- ration need not read this chapter. Summary The NV9607 is a relatively simple panel. It has 116 function buttons and a small display. Although it has relatively few button functions, there are 4 operating modes. •... - Page 26 Click ‘Add Control Panel’ at the bottom of the configuration page. The ‘Add Control Panel’ page appears: Choose “NV9607” from the ‘Type’ field. In the ID field, enter the panel ID you assigned to the panel while it was in setup mode. (You can change the panel ID in NV9000-SE Utilities.) Give a name to the panel in the name field and select a user.

These are the drop-down menus: These are its drop-down menu options: Panel Behavioral Limited X-Y In limited X-Y mode, takes occur from a single source to a single Model destination (which is selectable). -
Page 31: Checkbox Options
When this checkbox is checked, the panel powers up in “hold mode.” Otherwise it powers up with hold mode off. Hold mode, under single-destination mode with breakaway, causes the selected levels to be retained after a take. If hold mode is off, all levels become selected after a take.

The NV9607 provides no explicit indication, during operation, whether a destination is locked or unlocked. Destination The button toggles between the first and second destination sets.
- Page 35 Menu This button puts the NV9607 panel in menu mode and displays a menu on the buttons that provides access to a variety of panel functions. With- out the button, the operator has no access to the menu functions.
- Page 36 4. Configuration Button Definitions Type Modes Description Panel Lock The button prevents accidental changes to the panel settings, especially router crosspoints. When the panel is locked, the button array becomes blank except for the Panel Lock button which becomes high tally red. Pressing the panel lock button again reverts the panel to its previous state.
- Page 37 At the limit, you could configure up to 116 desti- nations. (When the NV9607 has an NV9606 extension, you could configure up to 68 additional destinations.) The destination assigned to the button does not change when the source page changes.
- Page 38 4. Configuration Button Definitions Type Modes Description Source/ The button selects both a source and a destination and performs an Destination immediate take. Source/dest buttons are not subject to source preview mode. In fact they become inactive in source preview mode. Source/dest buttons are not subject to source shift or destination shift.

Page 39: Multi-Destination Configuration
‘Take’ button is required to complete the take. Potentially, all 116 buttons of a NV9607 could be source buttons, each having a unique destination. Thus, at that extreme, a panel in multi-destination mode could represent 116 destinations and give operators the choice of two sources for each destination. - Page 40 4.

Page 41: Operation
This chapter is intended specifically for the NV9607 panel operator. Summary As an NV9607 operator, you will be confronted initially with a relatively simple panel — 116 but- tons and a small display. The panel’s buttons can have arbitrary legends. Some buttons can be applied differently in other modes (such as menu mode). -
Page 42: 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 unless source pre- view mode is active. In that case, pressing a ‘Take’ button is required for the completion of the take. This paradigm has slight variations in the different modes. -
Page 43: Secondary Modes
Because the buttons of the NV9607 are small, it is not easy to create legend inserts. There is room above the buttons for cus- tomers to place adhesive-backed legends. -
Page 44: Operating Concepts
5. Operation Operating Concepts Operating Concepts Source Shift Source shift applies in all modes. Each source button can represent two sources. A ‘Source Shift’ button selects which of the two sources the source button will select. (The concept is similar to the shift key or the ‘caps lock’ key on a keyboard.) A source shift button is a toggle that enables either the first or second source of source buttons. -

Page 46: Buttons
After you turn it on, source preview mode remains in effect until you turn it off. Buttons The NV9607 has 3 classes of button functions: • Dedicated functions, such as ‘Default State’ and ‘Chop’. • Variable functions, such as ‘Salvo’, ‘Source’, or ‘Destination’. A salvo button executes a spe- cific system salvo. -
Page 47: Default State
If you attempt to take a source to a destination that is locked (or protected by another user), the message “Some levels did not switch” appears in the display. Locks apply to selected levels in single-destination mode with breakaway. The NV9607 provides no explicit indication, during operation, whether a destination is locked or unlocked. S, B, X Destination Protect This button is a toggle that sets or clears a protect on the current destination device. -
Page 48: Destination Shift
5. Operation Operating Concepts The NV9607 provides no explicit indication, during operation, whether a destination is locked or unlocked. Destination Shift The ‘Destination Shift’ button toggles between the first and second destination sets (which are available only in limited X-Y mode). -
Page 49: Name Set Toggle
The button does not restore the previous destination. If you changed the destination and press ‘Pre- vious Source’, the take will not restore the previous route. Salvo The salvo button executes a system salvo immediately. NV9607 Control Panel • User’s Guide... -
Page 50: Source
5. Operation Operating Concepts Source The button selects a source. The source name appears in the ‘Status’ display. Pressing a source button completes a take unless the panel is in source preview mode. In source preview mode, pressing a ‘Take’ button is required for the completion of a take. The nature of source buttons differs according to the panel’s configured operating mode: •... -

The ‘Preview’ field of the display shows the source you chose and the take button turns red. If that is the correct source, press a ‘Take’ button. If it is not the correct source, you can press another source and then press a ‘Take’ button. NV9607 Control Panel • User’s Guide... -
Page 54: Case 4 - Multi-Destination Mode
There are no destination buttons. Potentially, all 116 buttons of a NV9607 could be source buttons, each having a unique destination. Thus, at that extreme, a panel in multi-destination mode could represent 116 destinations and give operators the choice of two sources for each destination. -
Page 55: Name Sets
1 Ensure that all devices that you want to include in the route are not locked or protected — and that their machine control levels can be acquired. 2 Ensure that the panel has a ‘Broadcast’ button. If it does not, broadcast routes are not possible. Consult your administrator. NV9607 Control Panel • User’s Guide... -
Page 56: Performing A Broadcast Take
5. Operation Operating Concepts 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.) Performing a Broadcast Take Follow these steps: 1 Select a destination and route a source to it. -
