  • Page 10: Terms, Conventions And Abbreviations

    Press the SRC 12 button ... The following terms and abbreviations are used throughout this guide: • The term “control panel” refers to the NV9605 control panel and to NV96xx control panels, in general. • “High tally” means that a button is brightly illuminated.
  • Page 11: Introduction

    The scroll buttons are also used when the panel is in menu mode (to change the illumination of the buttons). See Menu Mode page 1. An equivalent NV9605V — a GUI that is called a “virtual panel”— is available. It emulates the NV9605.
  • Page 12: Panel Organization

    Panel Organization Function Buttons The NV9605 has an array of 32 function buttons on the left. Four of the 6 buttons on the right are function buttons. (The other 2 buttons on the right are scroll buttons.) The buttons’ functions are only slightly different in each of the 2 operating modes. (See Modes Operation, next.)
  • Page 13: Alphanumeric Display

    NV9605 User’s Guide The 4 function buttons on the right behave differently when you scroll: • Source buttons remain source buttons on all pages, although they can represent different sources on different pages. Destination buttons are destination buttons on all pages, although they can represent different destinations on different pages.
  • Page 14: Modes Of Operation

    In this mode, you can preset the NV9605’s panel ID and perform a few diagnostic tasks. • Menu mode — pressing a menu button places the NV9605 in “menu” mode. In menu mode, the buttons lose their normal functions and become part of a menu that changes as needed during menu operation.
  • Page 15: Other Nv9605 Functions

    NV9605 User’s Guide Other NV9605 Functions The NV9605 can be configured to perform the following additional functions: • Previous source and free source. • System salvos. • Lock/protect/release for destinations. • Multiple-level breakaways. • Broadcast data routing.

    Valley if you need to obtain the latest version of this NV9000 configuration software. You may use the Panel IP Configuration Utility if you want to your NV9605 to have a static IP address (with respect to the system controller) or to use DHCP. The panel, as it comes from the factory, defaults to DHCP.
  • Page 19: Testing

    These are points to consider after you install your NV9605 control panel(s): 1 Do the buttons illuminate? When an NV9605 powers up, one or more of its buttons are supposed to turn green or amber. Did it pass the panel test mentioned above? 2 When the NV9605 powers up and it is connected to the system controller, it should initialize completely.
  • Page 20 Installation Testing If (in setup mode) you do not see your designated panel ID in the ‘Preset’ display field, you have either not initialized the panel or no configuration has been created for your panel in NV9000-SE Utilities. 3 Is the system controller actually running? With the typical noise levels in a facility, it can sometimes be difficult to tell.

    NV9605 User’s Guide Default Name System Name A list of “name sets” appears in the drop-down menu. The name sets can be defined under the System Management pane of NV9000-SE Utilities. Choose ‘System Name’ in this list if you do not want, or do not care about, alternate device names.
  • Page 28: Button Definitions

    Button Specification The button definition section configures the button you have selected in the image of the NV9605: When you choose a button type, additional drop-down menus can appear, depending on the button type, allowing you to further specify the button’s behavior. Available options and selections vary from button type to button type.
  • Page 29: Button Types

    NV9605 User’s Guide Button Types These are the button types available for NV9605 configurations: Type Code Description Broadcast M, X On the data (machine control) level, the button enables a broadcast take to an additional controlled device, after a broadcast route has been initiated with a “source is master”...

The NV9605 provides no explicit indication, during operation, whether a destination is locked or unlocked. This button is available, but does not operate, in multi-destination mode.
  • Page 31 Menu M, X This button puts the NV9605 panel in menu mode and displays a menu on the buttons that provides access to a variety of panel functions. Without the button, the operator has no access to the menu functions.
  • Page 32 Configuration Button Types Type Code Description Previous M, X The button presets the previously routed source to the currently Source selected destination. The operator must next press ‘Take’ to restore the previous route. This function is useful when an operator makes a route in error.

    — to the destination assigned to the source button. (A source shift button switches between the two sources of the source buttons.) Potentially, all 36 buttons of a NV9605 could be source buttons, each having a unique destination. Thus, at that extreme, a panel in multi-destination mode could represent 36 destinations in each of the its 4 pages (a total of 144 destinations) and give operators the choice of two sources for each destination.

  • Page 35: Operation

    This chapter is intended specifically for the NV9605 panel operator. Summary As an NV9605 operator, you will be confronted initially with a relatively small and simple panel — 38 buttons with three 8-character displays. The panel’s buttons can have arbitrary legends (using plastic inserts under the button caps).
  • Page 36: Limited X-Y Mode

    Operation Modes of Operation The panel’s set of button functions varies slightly with the mode (or model). Generally, to operate the panel, you choose a destination, (possibly) choose desired breakaway levels, and choose a source. Choosing a source for a destination completes the take.
  • Page 37: Secondary Modes

    Usually, only configurers need be concerned with setup mode. Setup Mode page • Menu mode — pressing a menu button places the NV9605 in “menu” mode. In menu mode, the buttons lose their normal functions and become part of a menu that changes as needed during menu operation.

    2 Select any destination. Buttons The NV9605 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 specific system salvo.
  • Page 40: Broadcast

    When you lock a destination, the ‘Destination Lock’ button goes high-tally amber. If you have a ‘Destination Protect’ button, it will also go high-tally amber.  Locks 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.

  • Page 46: Name Sets

    There are no destination buttons. Potentially, all 36 configurable buttons of a NV9605 could be source buttons, each having a unique destination. Thus, at that extreme, a panel in multi-destination mode could represent 36 destinations for each of the 4 pages or 144 destinations in total.
  • Page 47: Broadcast Routes

    NV9605 User’s Guide Note that when the panel is displaying alternate names, and a device does not have an alternate name, the panel displays the system name. Broadcast Routes It is easy to route a source to multiple destinations for audio and video routers. You place the panel in hold mode with the hold button.
  • Page 48: Performing A Broadcast Take - Multi-Destination Mode

    Operation Data Routing Performing a Broadcast Take — Multi-Destination Mode Follow these steps: 1 Press a source. That source becomes the master because the router is in data forward mode. This destination (configured on the source button) is the slave and communicates bidirectionally with the master on the machine control level.
  • Page 49: Semi-Automatic Data Routing

    NV9605 User’s Guide Semi-Automatic Data Routing A take involving a source or a destination having a machine control level might not occur immediately if the source or destination device is in use. This option applies in all operating modes. If neither device is “in use” the take occurs immediately. Otherwise, you need to press the source button again to complete the take.
